The Guidelines (on mangrove restoration, seagrass restoration, and environmental flow assessments ) provide step-by-step guides on how to conduct a restoration project or assessment and outline WIO-specific case studies on how various interventions have worked and lessons learnt. This followed a recommendation from the Nairobi Convention Focal Points and other partners at the MSP meeting held in March 2019 in Tanzania on the establishment of an MSP TWG to lead the development of a WIO regional MSP strategy. Working Groups: A technical working group on marine litter and microplastics has been established to provide a forum for sharing and exchanging of information provide policy guidance and advice to the Nairobi Convention and other regional frameworks and synthesize information and produce peer-reviewed publications and other products. A technical working group (TWG) on Marine Spatial Planning (MSP) held its first meeting in July 2020.
