The ACB and  Pew Charitable Trusts enhanced efforts to help governments clarify and determine possible contributions to achieve the proposed global targets for marine protected areas, including Other Effective Conservation Measures and area-based management tools within marine biodiversity in areas beyond national jurisdiction (BBNJ) .
