Indique cuáles han sido los resultados/logros obtenidos en el marco de las actividades realizadas: 
We continue to press for higher aspirations and we await the outcomes of BBNJ, CBD, and New Zealand policy and law reform and other processes.
The New Zealand government has promised but not delivered on a ban on new mines on Conservation land; The NZ Government has stopped issuing new oil and gas permits in the NZ marine areas and most of the terrestrial environment except where these have already been promised or are held and/or operating.
¿Qué esfuerzos se están llevando a cabo para superar dichos obstáculos?: 
The pervasive influence of industrial fishers, the oil and gas and minerals industry and embedded ignorance and opposition from those who do not understand the crises to biodiversity and the importance of significant areas for biodiversity protection. Funding is always a problem.

Acción FuturaDescripción
Convocar a partes interesadas/creaci�n de redesECO is a network of organisations and in turn networks with other groups both nationally and internationally. Funding is a constraint, but we convene a variety of discussions, often via electronic means.
Educaci�n/Comunicaci�n/Concientizaci�nECO produces a weekly newsletter and other communications as well as raising awareness of science and Maturanga Maori (Maori knowledge and insights) , and we also attend a variety of meetings and conferences in which we raise these issues. ECO responds to many discussion documents and law reform processes.
Influencia pol�tica/promoci�n de pol�ticasECO attends the BBNJ meetings via the High Seas Alliance/Deep Sea Conservation Coalition or the NZ Government delegation, and we will continue doing that. In respect of Antarctica and the Southern Ocean, we work via the Antarctic and Southern Ocean Coalition (ASOC) and the NZ Government, other ENGOs, etc. Within New Zealand we work with ENGO colleagues, academics, science, and Maori organisations and government agencies depending on the topic.
