EP leatherback nesting population once the largest nesting population in the world, with over 150,000 nest estimated in the early 1980's, has plummeted to fewer than 1500 nests annually.

Activities include: (1) maintain regional database, website and online library of best management practices for laud OOP; (2) facilitate alignment of IAC leatherback taskforce priorities with laud OPO; (3) accompany IAC secretariat as technical expert to meetings with high level government officials and international fisheries bodies to address leatherback fisheries bycatch; and (4) coordinate one laud OPO workshop annually to review ongoing projects and activities and consult about problems, needs, and successful means to further recovery efforts.
