Ecosystem-based Management of the Humboldt Current Large Marine Ecosystem (HCLME), leads to the following conclusions: 52 The information analysed warns about some impairment of the goods and services provided by the HCLME, a situation that may jeopardize the productive activities and services developed in the region, mainly those associated with the fishing and aquaculture industries, very important for the economies of Chile and Peru 52 Despite the numerous root causes identified for the problems, the causes are framed in the following thematic root causes aggregation (ACR): knowledge, social causes, economic causes, governance and institutional causes Based on these criteria, the main leverage points are proposed in order to develop the binational Strategic Action Program (SAP) and

Ecosistema Marino de la Corriente Humboldt EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Humboldt Current Large Marine Ecosystem (HCLME) stands out as one of the world’s most productive marine ecosystems It is characterized by the permanent upwelling of subsurface, relatively cold, nutrient-rich waters, which is a key factor for high marine productivity An array of habitats coexists within this ecosystem, which sustains important fisheries worldwide Pelagic, demersal, benthic, estuarine, coastal and deep-water habitats, such as seamounts and submarine canyons, stand among the most important systems, all of which can be vulnerable to human interaction as they host fragile endemic species that are difficult to recover when they are affected Another feature of the HCLME is related to changes that can impact the provision of goods and services caused by environmental variability in different timescales ranging from interannual occurrences like El Niño/Southern Oscillation, to interdecadal changes such as global warming Anthropogenic activities related to an increase in the production processes and services such as artisanal and industrial fishing, urban development, increasing shipping activities, infrastructure projects, agriculture, mining, increasing tourism activities, among others, in addition to the natural aspects of environmental variability, represent the main sources of habitat and marine biodiversity alteration, and in general, an alteration in the provision of goods and services of the HCLME With a view to promoting an Ecosystem-based management (EBM) of the HCLME, the Governments of Peru and Chile in 2010 agreed to co-finance in conjunction with the Global Environment Facility (GEF) the Humboldt Project PIMS 4147 “Towards Ecosystem-Based Management of the Humboldt Current Large Marine Ecosystem” The management and implementation of this project were carried out with the support of the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) and the United Nations Office for Project Services (UNOPS) through a binational Regional Coordination Unit (RCU) The focal points were the Institute of Fishing Promotion (IFOP) in Chile and the Institute of the Sea (IMARPE) in Peru The Project goal is to advance towards a sustainably used and resilient HCLME that can maintain biological integrity and diversity and ecosystem services for current and future generations despite changing climate and social pressures The Project objective is: “To advance towards Ecosystem Programa de Acción Estratégico PAE Hacia un manejo enfoque ecosistémico del Gran Ecosistema Marino de la
