Caribbean Sea Ecosystem Assessment (Carsea)
The Caribbean Sea Assessment (CARSEA) was led by The University of the West Indies (UWI) and The
Cropper Foundation, in collaboration with The Institute of Marine Affairs (IMA), the United Nations
Environment Programme Regional Office for Latin America and the Caribbean (UNEP ROLAC), the
Caribbean Conservation Association (CCA), and the Caribbean Agricultural Development Research Institute
(CARDI).
Over sixty individuals, drawn from about thirty institutions and organizations from the Wider Caribbean
Region, contributed voluntarily to the Assessment. The engagement between contributors during the course
of the Assessment was the first step towards establishing better collaboration and coordination for joint
management of the Caribbean Sea.
