CTI-CFF: progress towards SDG 13 and COP26

The Coral Triangle Initiative on Coral Reefs, Fisheries, and Food Security (CTI-CFF) is a multilateral partnership of six countries (the CT6: Indonesia, Malaysia, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Solomon Islands and Timor-Leste) working together to sustain extraordinary marine and coastal resources by addressing crucial issues such as food security, climate change and marine biodiversity.

The CTI Women Leaders Forum developed the Gender Equality and Social Inclusion (GESI) Policy as a critical tool for ensuring the CTI-CFF as an inclusive regional platform for achieving its marine conservation and resource management goals. The GESI policy was approved during the 16th Senior Officials Meeting (December 2021) and agreed to the inclusion of GESI policy to any interventions or programs being implemented by the CTI-CFF.
