论BBNJ协定中公海保护区宜采取全球管理模式

On the Rationality of Adopting Global Management Model in the High Seas Marine Protected Areas under the BBNJ Agreement

当前,联合国大会正式启动了就国家管辖海域外生物多样性(BBNJ)的养护和可持续利用问题拟订一份具有法律约束力的国际文书的进程。该文书被视为《联合国海洋法公约》的第三个执行协定,将处理包括公海保护区在内的一系列重要议题。在谈判过程中,各方对于公海保护区的管理模式到底应当采用全球模式还是区域模式一直未达成共识。通过对全球模式和区域模式进行深入分析可得,区域模式在公海保护区问题上存在一定的局限性。在后续谈判时,中国应当在继续主张采取全球模式的基础上提出相应的措施,以切实推动公海保护区议题的谈判。

Currently,the UN General Assembly has officially initiated the process of developing an international legally binding instrument on the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity beyond national jurisdiction.Regarded as the third implementing agreement of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea,the instrument will cope with a series of important issues including high seas marine protected areas.In the earlier negotiation,the parties have not reached a consensus on the management model of the high seas protected areas.Based on an in-depth analysis of both global and regional management model,limitations of the regional model on the issue of high seas marine protected areas could be concluded.In the follow-up negotiations,China should put forward corresponding measures on the basis of insisting on advocating the adoption of a global model so as to effectively promote negotiation on the issue of high seas marine protected areas.
