View PublicationThe MARES Program’s scope of work includes developing the framework and tools for application of market-based mechanisms to marine and coastal conservation, testing these methods in the field with pilot projects, and communicating and raising awareness on the usefulness of these tools and methods through publications, convening meetings, and forming networks. MARES works closely with other Forest Trends initiatives to bring these innovative solutions to marine conservation.
