Within the BBNJ Agreement, there is a need for robust implementation and compliance mechanisms in order to effectively deliver the broader goal of conservation and sustainable use of marine biodiversity in areas beyond national jurisdiction (ABNJ). Implementation and compliance mechanisms form an essential part of today’s international and multilateral environmental agreements and are a necessary tool to ensure that these agreements achieve their objectives. In addition, they are an important tool in addition to traditional means of dispute resolution under international law such as arbitration and litigation, which can be expensive, time- consuming, and confrontational.
