CTC Accepted as Development Partner in CTI-CFF, Manado, 15 May 2014
Coral Triangle Center obtained the status of Development
Partner following the decision by the ministers of six
Coral Triangle countries in the CTI-CFF 5th Ministerial
Meeting held in Manado, May 15, 2014. This decision is
made following the 9th Senior Official Meeting (SOM9) in
Manila, Philippines on 26-27 November 2013 endorsing
the Coral Triangle Center as a new development partner.
CTC is the first new Partner of the CTI-CFF since the
regional forum was launched in 2009. It joins three of
the worlds biggest environmental NGOs Conservation
International, The Nature Conservancy and World Wide
Fund for Nature who have been Partners of the CTI-CFF
from the outset, along with the Government of Australia,
United States Government, Asian Development Bank, and
Global Environment Facility.
Partners participate in the CTI-CFF Ministerial Meeting
and Senior Officials Meeting upon the invitation of the
CTI COM (Council of Ministers). Organizations and States
seeking to be a CTI-CFF Partner must be approved
by consensus resolution of the CTI COM, meet a set of
criteria for CTI-CFF Partner membership as agreed by
the CTI COM and state at a Ministerial Meeting its support
for the principles and objectives of the CTI-CFF, its Rules
of Procedure and the CTI-CFF Secretariat Agreement.
CTC is focused on strengthening local capacity for marine
conservation through customized trainings, marine
protected area (MPA) learning sites, and facilitation of
19
Public and Private Partnership
C T C Q U A R T E R LY R E P O R T 2 0 1 4 - 0 2
public-private partnerships in the Coral Triangle.
Although a new Partner, it has a long-standing
relationship with the CTI-CFF and its Member
Countries -- it is one of the core organizers of the
CTI-CFF Women Leaders Forum and Regional
Business Forum, and has provided more than
30 customized trainings throughout the CTI-
CFF countries to more than 1,000 stakeholders
directly involved in marine conservation.
As a CTI-CFF Partner with its sole geographic
scope focused on the Coral Triangle, CTC
is better positioned to conduct capacity
development programs with partners and
communities throughout the Coral Triangle
in order to achieve sustainable marine and
coastal resource management within the region
and around the world, said CTCs Executive
Director, Ms. Rili Djohani. CTC acts as a bridge
across scales and sectors throughout the Coral
Triangle, connecting the local to regional level
and building public-private partnerships.
CTC is now well positioned in the region to
conduct great activities with partners and
communities, to achieve shared goals for future
generations: a sustainable marine and coastal
resources in the coral triangle region.

Coral Triangle Day 2014 CTC Annual Open
House, Sanur, Bali, 9 June 2014
As the world celebrates the Coral Triangle Day, the Coral
Triangle Center held open house for school children to
raise awareness about the importance of conserving the
marine environment. This celebration brought together
school children, parents, and local youth from Sanur to
participate in learning classes and games on marine
conservation and sustainable fishing. The children
were introduced to coral reefs, mangroves, sea grass
ecosystems and the species living in those habitats. The
connectivity between these ecosystems such as migration
of fish was highlighted as well as their importance to the
livelihoods of people. In a group drawing competition, the
children were engaged in drawing their own interpretation
of marine ecosystems (habitat and species).
Around 60 children and students took part in the games
on coloring game for younger kids and learning classes
and group interpretive drawing for the elementary
schoolchildren, followed by a prize ceremony and lunch.
Rili Djohani, Executive Director of the Coral Triangle
Center, said We engage school children and introduce
them to the basics of marine conservation, so they can
share what they learn to their friends and family and take
action, she further emphasized CTCs strong belief that
raising the awareness of children early on the beauty and
importance of marine ecosystems is pivotal to protect
the marine biodiversity in the region and secure food for
millions of people.

THE CORAL TRIANGLE CENTER
The Coral Triangle Center (CTC) is a foundation based
in Indonesia that trains marine resource managers and
educates all groups that interact with coastlines and reefs
within the Coral Triangle. The CTC provides training and
learning programs; supports marine-protected areas;
coordinates a learning network for MPA practitioners;
connects the public and private sector on coastal issues; and
is developing a center of excellence in marine conservation
in Bali focused on the Coral Triangle.
CTC has a Board of Trustees consisting of 12 members
and a Board of Advisers with representatives from each
CT6 country and experts form Australia, USA and UK.
CTC envisions healthy seas that enrich nature and people
with mission is to inspire and train generations to care for
coastal and marine ecosystems. There are five programs
within CTC, they are Training and Learning, Learning
Sites, Learning Network, Public-Private Partnership, and
Regional Hub. CTC is developing a portfolio of MPA learning
sites throughout the Coral Triangle with Nusa Penida MPA
and the Banda Islands as its learnings sites in Indonesia.
Established in 2000, CTC was developed as the regional
training arm of The Nature Conservancy. Given the huge
growth in demand and need to build capacity at much larger
national and regional scales, TNC recognized that regional
training and learning services could be best provided over
the long term by an autonomous, locally based organization.
CTC transitioned from TNC into a fully independent
organization in 2011.
To date, CTC has trained more than 1000 professionals
and practitioners. The Coral Triangle Center (CTC) and
the Indonesian Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries
(MMAF) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) in
2012 to build local leadership and capacity in the field of
marine conservation and sustainable fisheries resources
conservation. Recently, at SOM9, CTC has been unanimously
endorsed by the CT delegates to become a development
partner to CTI-CFF. CTC works with communities, national
and local governments, international and local universities,
NGOs, networks and corporate partners to implement its
programs funded by public and private donors.
