The document discusses the GEF 6 strategy for managing transboundary water systems. It notes that there are 263 international drainage basins, 145 national borders, and 64 Large Marine Ecosystems that produce 95% of the world's fish catch shared between countries. The GEF 6 strategy has three objectives: 1) catalyze sustainable management of transboundary waters, 2) balance competing water uses, and 3) rebuild marine fisheries and protect coastal habitats. The GEF 6 replenishment provided a record $4.433 billion to implement programs aligned with these three objectives, including managing transboundary surface and groundwater systems, increasing water, food, and ecosystem security, and preventing coastal habitat loss and ocean hypoxia.

- 5. GEF 6 International Waters Strategy Objective 1: To catalyze sustainable management of Transboundary Waters Objective 2: To balance competing water-uses in the management of transboundary surface and groundwater. Objective 3: To rebuild marine fisheries, restore and protect coastal habitats, and reduce pollution of coasts and LMEs 1.1: Foster cooperation for sustainable use of transboundary water systems and economic growth 1.2 Increase the Resilience and Flow of Ecosystems Services in the Context of Melting High Altitude Glaciers 2.1 Advance conjunctive management of surface and groundwater Systems 2.2 Increase Water/Food/Energy/ Ecosystems security and reduce conflict potential 3.1 Prevent the Loss and Degradation of Coastal Habitats 3.2 Reduce Ocean Hypoxia 3.3 Rebuild Global Fisheries
