The PROCARIBE+ Project, as a “double-LME”, regional multi (20+)-country, multi-party project aiming to give continuity to prior GEF-supported efforts, covering several linguistic and geopolitical subregions and thematically cutting across all ocean-using sectors, introduces the requirements for, and concept of a strong regional project management and technical coordination/support unit”. It is noted in this context how the critical role of a strong PMCU in overall project adaptive management and success has been highlighted in the independent evaluations of the predecessor CLME and CLME+ Projects.
The term “Project Management and Coordination Unit” (PMCU) combines and at the same time differentiates between, on one hand, the project management activities (charged to the PMC budget), and, on the other hand, the substantive project technical support and geographic and thematic coordination activities that will be required from this Unit - both of which being strongly inter-linked.
