The new discoveries in the Grand Cul-de-Sac Marin are of a completely different nature. Following reports in 2012, surveys were organized: a sample of 160 lithic pieces scattered on the seabed between 2.50 m and 4 m deep was taken more than 1 km offshore. It is macrolithic tools in andesite. The most spectacular are axes blades and abrasive tools such as grinding stones, grinders, mortars and circular polishers. There are also elongated pebbles bearing percussion marks attesting to their use as hammers. The status of this vast deposit is still undetermined.

The announcement was made at the IUCN World Parks Congress 2014 taking place in Sydney, Australia. The IUCN Green List of Protected Areas is the only global standard of good practice for protected areas. It aims to recognise and promote success in managing some of the most valuable natural areas on the planet. The first 23 successful sites have been selected among 50 candidates put forward by the eight countries as part of the first phase of the Green List. “The IUCN Green List will define success for protected areas,” says Julia Marton-Lefèvre, IUCN Director General. “It is about recognizing those sites that successfully respond to the challenges of the 21st century and contribute to the wellbeing of people and nature.” The sites have been evaluated against a set of demanding criteria, including the quality of protection of natural values. They should demonstrate fair and transparent sharing of the costs and benefits of conservation, effective management and long-lasting conservation outcomes.

At the Fifth Meeting of the Contracting Parties (COP) to the Protocol Concerning Specially Protected Areas and Wildlife (SPAW) in the Wider Caribbean Region (St. John’s, Antigua, 8 September 2008), the Parties adopted the Guidelines and Criteria for the Evaluation of Protected Areas to be Listed Under the SPAW Protocol (UNEP(DEPI)/CAR WG.31/3 Annex V/Rev.1). The Parties also decided at that time to initiate the listing process through a Pilot Project to help assess the Guidelines and Criteria, as well as the format for listing, as part of the approved 2008-2009 Workplan for SPAW and to be implemented in collaboration with the Regional Activity Centre for SPAW (SPAW-RAC) in Guadeloupe, the Parties to the SPAW Protocol and regional experts. 2. This activity was approved with a view to start development of a programme of cooperation for protected areas (Article 7 of the SPAW Protocol) and contribute to the building of ecological networks of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs).

Backed by long and diverse experience in forest management and spatial planning, it is France’s intention to take operational action to promote the sustainable management of tropical forest ecosystems. The sustainable management of overseas forests is in this way a major goal, combined with the desire to produce timber and procure environmental services and protect their exceptional biodiversity.
