As part of its support to CaMPAM, UNEP-CEP has established a small grants fund, the goals of which are:

 

• To strengthen the management capability of marine protected area (MPA) managers in the WCR;
• To strengthen the capacities of institutions managing MPAs; 
• To develop and implement strategies for increased involvement of stakeholders in MPA management; 
• To develop and implement training programmes, strategies, and tools for improved management of MPAs; 
• To act as a catalyst in attracting funds from other bilateral and multilateral initiatives for the purpose of addressing stated priority problems and issues; 
• To promote “best management” MPA sites to serve as sites for demonstration, training, and internships; and 
• To promote horizontal exchanges of all types among MPAs, including twinning and mentoring programmes.
