On days 1 and 2, working groups comprised of thematic experts / leads for each jurisdiction will:

• Define what it means to effectively manage at least 50% of marine resources (out to the edge of the EEZ) and 30% of terrestrial resources, including how both will be measured
• Determine a reasonable but ambitious target and metrics for the number of community members within each jurisdiction who are deriving livelihoods from effectively managed marine and terrestrial resources
• Determine a reasonable but ambitious target and metrics for reducing the risks from climate impacts for communities within flood zones and on low-lying islands
• Determine a reasonable but ambitious target and metrics for reducing invasive species and increasing restoration of habitats
• Identify regional and jurisdictional fisheries management approaches to integrate with MPAs and how to measure them
• Estimate costs for implementing interventions to achieve new components of the MC2030
