Al Sanbouk newsletter 01-12-2005 for PERSGA

Welcome to the twenty second edition of our Newsletter Al-Sanbouk which comes at the end of the implementation of the Strategic action Programme for the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden (SAP) executed by PERSGA and its Member States. I was appointed as the Minister of Environment and Physical Development in Sudan following HE –El-Tegani Adam El-Taher. Among other matters I went through the PERSGA files and its activities at both national and regional levels. It is encouraging to feel the interaction and cooperation be- tween PERSGA and its member states. The fruits of such cooperation were capacity building in PERSGA and its member states, navigation safety in hazardous areas south of the Red Sea, reduction in the use of destructive fishing methods, practical movement in habitat and biodiversity conservation among which are the establishment of marine protected areas, development of ICZM plans and enhancement of public awareness.

The release of the 19th issue of Al Sanbouk coincides with the successful completion of a five year period of uninterrupted work (1998-2003) by dedicated PERSGA staff towards the protection of the environment of the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden. It marks the end point of a period during which PERSGA spared no effort to convert aspirations of progress and development in the Region into reality, and to help in protecting the environment and its natural resources for the welfare of future generations. PERSGA, with its seven member countries, completed the core activities of the SAP (Strategic Action Programme) by the end of 2003. The SAP took five years of continuous work and was supported by the GEF implementing agencies (UNDP, UNEP and World Bank) and the Islamic Development Bank

Al Sanbouk newsletter 01-01-1996 for PERSGA

So much news nowadays describes to us the poor state of health suffered by many of the earth’s seas and oceans: coastal areas being degraded by oil and chemical pollution and poor building practices; coral reefs being destroyed by excessive nutrients, explosives, or siltation from unmanaged land activities; marine resources being over-fished relentlessly. But the news is not all bad.
