The meeting was attended by the CPPS member countries (Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Panama and Peru) as well as by representatives from CPPS, IOC/ICAM, IOC/IODE and the Government of Flanders. The Government of Flanders is the main donor of the SPINCAM project. The Project aims to establish an ICAM indicator framework in each country of the Southeast Pacific region focused on environmental and socio-economic conditions within the context of sustainable development and integrated coastal area management. The Project will also develop national coastal marine atlas and a regional atlas. This, together with assisting with the further development of National Oceanographic Data Centres (NODCs) and Marine Libraries encompasses the involvement of IODE.
