  • Summary

    This chapter will analyze State led regional cooperation efforts in the Eastern Tropical Pacific Ocean (ETPO) to create a transboundary marine corridor linking five Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) across four jurisdictions. Specific rule of law challenges faced by this initiative will be discussed, including the lack of a legally binding cooperation agreement, limited sectoral participation, the vast scale of the project, and the absence of a cohesive overarching regional ocean governance framework. The potential impact of a new global treaty to protect biodiversity beyond national jurisdiction (BBNJ) on existing regional ocean governance mechanisms in the ETPO will also be assessed.
