Lessons Learned on Program Implementation
- SpecificOwnership by local governments for ICM implementation and sustainability is important.
Co-financing and cost-sharing approach of PEMSEA allows local ownership to be developed.
(The government inputs to PEMSEA totaled $8.9M by 2003, exceeding the pre-determined $3.3M estimate.)
Sustainability can be achieved through strong government action, supporting legal system, sound science and capacity building. pemsea 1.ppt

Mobilizing local governments to address environmental issues is the right approach, together with institutional arrangements to ensure local participation and strengthen local capacity.
While multi-agency participation and intersectoral engagement is required, often complicated by interagency conflicts and competition at the local and national levels. Negotiations, persuasion and pragmatism are required.

Overcoming Challenges to the Implementation of the SDS-SEA
GEF funding still essential as catalyst to build upon and to strengthen the regional partnership mechanism.
Long-term sustainability of the partnership depends on the capacity and willingness of the partners to meet targets and objectives.
