The year 1997 is designated the International Year of the Reef (IYOR) worldwide by a group of non-governmental organizations and institutions. This effort was endorsed by the International Coral Reef Initiative (ICRI), an international partnership of 75 nations seeking to implement Chapter 17 of Agenda 21, the Action Program adopted by the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro. Agenda 21, to date, is the most comprehensive action plan to halt and reverse the effects of environmental degradation and to promote environmentally sound sustainable development. Chapter 17 presents integrated strategies and programs for the protection and rational use of resources from oceans, all kinds of seas, and coastal areas. IYOR is intended to provide a global context for national and regional efforts to save coral reefs. As such, it promotes collaboration among organizations and programs with common interests in reef management and research. 1, record 1, English, - International%20Year%20of%20the%20Reef
