Annex 1, page 3 INTRODUCTION 1 The Integrated Technical Cooperation Programme (ITCP) is designed to assist developing countries 1 to implement international maritime rules and standards in a harmonized manner in accordance with IMO's global mandate "to promote safe, secure, environmentally sound, efficient and sustainable shipping through cooperation." Thus, the ITCP, underpinned by the technical cooperation mission objectives, is developed in response to the technical assistance needs of Member States while, at the same time, methodical planning ensures the relevance, transparency, effectiveness and efficiency of the technical assistance provided. Through implementation of the ITCP, IMO addresses the objectives of strengthening regional maritime competencies and promoting maritime development across the globe. 2 The ITCP structure is an integrated framework of regional and global programmes, which is planned and presented to the Technical Cooperation Committee (TCC) for approval each biennium. The annual programmes, encompassing their fully developed constituent activities, are finalized through Programme Implementation Documents (PIDs) and are ready for delivery at the beginning of each calendar year. 3 In accordance with the revised reporting requirements, 2 approved by TCC at its sixty-second session in June 2012, this report is a stand-alone annual report on ITCP implementation in 2016. 4 The results of the ITCP delivered in 2016 represent the collective effort of some 47 implementation officers and their supporting staff. Among the implementing officers are IMO staff in London, the Regional Presence Offices together with external partners and regional organizations. 5 While this report provides particulars of the activities delivered under the ITCP, further operational details on specific elements of technical cooperation are submitted to TCC for consideration under separate agenda items. Where relevant, reference to such documents is made throughout the text of this report. 6 This report illustrates the annual results for 2016 from both financial and non-quantifiable perspectives, so as to provide a full and transparent representation of the outputs delivered. In accordance with past practice, the complete report comprises two separate segments under the annexes listed below:.1 annex 1 a synopsis of the ITCP achievements in 2016, with summaries and statistics of the activities delivered, including an appendix detailing the individual activity results of regional and global programmes; and.2 annex 2 an overview of the financial resource delivery supported by a statistical analysis which displays long-term delivery trends, a profile of resource contributions to capture the donor 3 resources expended, resource and expenditure data illustrated with comparative disbursement by region and maritime discipline. The appendix to annex 2 provides a list of respective expenditure on each of the constituent programmes in operation in 2016. 1 2 The designations "developing countries" and "developing regions" are intended for statistical convenience and do not express a judgement about the stage reached by a particular country or area in the development process.

Annex 1, page 4 7 In the interests of clarity, the information in this report addresses expenditure on technical cooperation activities only; full financial information is available in Council document C 118/4(b) Accounts and audit: accounts for the financial period 2016 and transfers within the 2016 budget. PROGRAMME OVERVIEW AND EXECUTION Overview of ITCP delivery in 2016 8 The ITCP activities delivered in 2016 covered a wide range of subject matters under the maritime disciplines of safety, security, facilitation, legislation, marine environment protection, general maritime sector and member state audit. It should be noted that the discipline of member state audit was added in 2016 for the purpose of statistical analysis. Previously, activities which are now categorized under Member State audit were included in the discipline of general maritime sector. 9 In the development and implementation of ITCP activities, consideration was given to the respective objectives of the approved strategic directions and high-level action plan for the Organization for the 2016-2017 biennium (resolution A.1098(29)), as well as the Secretary-General's vision and policy directions on technical cooperation matters. In this respect, particular emphasis was placed on strengthening institutional capacities and human resource development in the regions. Thus, the ITCP provided support for national and regional maritime development policies, particularly through needs assessment exercises and regional meetings for heads of maritime administrations. During 2016 such support was a predominant feature of the regional programmes. 10 To supplement the regional programmes, the global programmes focused on specific technical and emerging issues undertaken from a global perspective. This flexible structure of the ITCP provided a mechanism for funds to be targeted across a spectrum of subject matters. Developing countries gain from the symbiosis of regional and global programmes, which allows activities to be delivered to those countries which need them most, and also impacts positively on the sustainable development of the maritime community as a whole. 11 The value of the continued development of formal partnerships to promote the ITCP is plainly apparent, and IMO's ability to deliver technical assistance was clearly enhanced through the formal partnership agreements that the Organization has reached with many of its Member States and various international and regional organizations (TC 67/6(b)). 12 IMO's technical cooperation mandate was served in a comprehensive manner through the implementation of the activities of the ITCP during 2016. A summary of all deliverables carried out under the programmes is presented in the tables and charts at the end of each regional and the global overview. Further details on the activities implemented, including the outputs and participating countries, are presented in the appendix. Aggregates for 2016 13 The number of activities delivered in 2016 increased slightly compared to the number delivered in 2015, although the total number of persons trained decreased slightly. However, overall the figures show consistency with previous years in terms of both total numbers and percentage of delivery. 14 In 2016, 237 activities were delivered out of a total of 299 activities programmed, for a delivery rate of 79%. This is a slight increase in delivery rate compared with 2015, when 235 activities were delivered out of 307 programmed (delivery rate of 77%). An additional 15 activities I:\TC\67\TC 67-3(a).docx

Annex 1, page 5 were ongoing at the end of the year, which, when added to those completed by end of year, bring the total delivery to 252 out of 299, or 84%. Of the activities delivered in 2016, 18 were advisory and needs assessment missions, which was a decrease from 29 in 2015; while 118 were national and regional training courses, compared with 115 in 2015. Other activities including model legislation, review and updating of training packages, meetings of heads of maritime administrations, conferences and other specific aspects of technical assistance increased in 2016, with a total of 101 such events delivered, as compared to 91 similar activities carried out during 2015. This indicates an increase in the breadth of activities programmed under the ITCP. 15 A total of 72 fellows completed fellowships in the maritime field in 2016, one more than the 71 fellows recorded in 2015. The 2016 total includes 22 fellows who qualified through the IMO global maritime training institutions, WMU and IMLI, nearly double the 13 who did so in 2015. Additionally, approximately 2,921 4 persons worldwide were trained through attendance at national and regional training workshops and seminars, compared with the 3,367 recorded in 2015. 16 A further 1,124 senior officials attended events in 2016 aimed at developing and harmonizing regional strategies on maritime technical issues, an increase from the 1,079 recorded in 2015. This figure is in addition to the number of persons trained through the regular training courses listed above. 17 Table 1 and chart 1 below display the ITCP aggregates summarizing the categories of activities and trainees. It should be noted that in all charts to follow, trainee numbers do not include the number of fellowships completed. 4 Please note these figures are indicative, and a number of officials may have attended two or more of the training workshops and seminars which took place on various issues.

In addition, similar collaborative efforts were initiated and strengthened in the west and central African region for the Gulf of Guinea. 20 Furthermore, IMO in collaboration with the United Nations Assistance Mission in Somalia (UNSOM), organized a Stakeholders Forum in Mogadishu, Somalia, in July 2016 to review the Draft Somalia Maritime Code, which IMO had facilitated, and aimed at assisting the Federal Government of Somalia to establish the necessary maritime and shipping legal frameworks which will facilitate the establishment of the Somalia National Maritime Administration. 21 Appreciable results have been recorded through the support provided to the Global Search and Rescue (SAR) Plan. In 2016, IMO delivered a total of 11 activities in the eastern, southern, west and central Africa subregions to improve regional SAR coordination and initiate the development of national SAR plans. Other activities included support to gender equality and the integration of women in the maritime sector. IMO has continued to give consideration to the special shipping needs of Small Island Developing States (SIDS) and Least Developed Countries (LDCs) in Africa. 22 Training activities on environmental sustainability were carried out in the region to increase awareness of the biofouling guidelines and on ratification, implementation and enforcement of the AFS Convention; the development of sensitivity maps; oil spill trajectory modelling; policy on the use of dispersants; and the development of oil spill contingency plans. In the spirit of partnership development, IMO and IPIECA, under the GI WACAF initiative, continued to strengthen the national oil spill response capacity and capabilities of countries in west, central and southern Africa. I:\TC\67\TC 67-3(a).docx

Annex 1, page 8 23 IMO participated actively in the 28th Ordinary Session of the Executive Council and the 26th Ordinary Session of the Assembly of the African Union, which was held in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia in January 2016. IMO's partnership with the African Union is part of the wider United Nations system assistance to Africa towards the realization of the objectives of the 2050 AIM Strategy, African Union Agenda 2063 and the United Nations 2030 Agenda on Sustainable Development. 24 In 2016, IMO completed implementation of the EU-funded FlagPort WACAF project aimed at ensuring compliance with IMO instruments for beneficiary countries in west and central Africa, with a view to upgrading the region's maritime administrations and preparing the countries for the mandatory IMO Member State Audit Scheme (IMSAS). The Project assisted national authorities to prepare tailor-made action plans for strengthening the performance of the maritime administrations in order to mitigate the imbalance between the required standards and the current situation.

Annex 1, page 11 Asia and Pacific: regional overview 2016 27 Technical assistance in the region continued to concentrate on improving institutional capacity through strengthening the national maritime administrations and developing human resources. The resources to deliver technical assistance were supported by IMO partnership arrangements under the MoUs with Malaysia, Singapore, the Pacific Community (SPC) and the Secretariat of the Pacific Regional Environment Programme (SPREP), among others, as well as financial contributions from donors, such as China, Malaysia, the Republic of Korea and the United Kingdom. Furthermore, the support provided through the IMO regional presence office for East Asia, located in Manila, the Philippines, continued to strengthen the Organization's capability to deliver ITCP activities in East Asia. 28 Regional meetings, such as the Asia-Pacific Heads of Maritime Safety Agencies (APHoMSA) Forum and the Association of South East Asian Nations Maritime Transport Working Group (ASEAN MTWG), provided the opportunity for the Secretariat to identify the real needs of Member States. 29 The Asia region benefited from a range of workshops, seminars and training courses, particularly in the areas of search and rescue, STCW, marine accident and incident investigation, flag State implementation, IMDG and IMSBC Codes, ferry safety, MARPOL, OPRC and oil spill contingency planning, facilitation of maritime traffic and civil liability conventions. Furthermore, assistance was rendered in the implementation of IMO instruments as well as assistance to maritime Administrations in their preparations for IMSAS. 30 The Pacific Islands region also benefitted from a range of activities in support of SPC's maritime transportation programme, including STCW, search and rescue, flag State inspectors' training and facilitation of maritime traffic. Additionally, a study for developing regional safety standards for Pacific domestic shipping was carried out. The environment-related activities focused on Ballast Water Management and the London Protocol, while promoting the Pacific Ocean Pollution Prevention Programme (PACPOL) Strategy for 2015-2020. The programme also supported the Regional Meeting for Heads of Maritime and Energy held in Vanuatu.

During 2016, assistance was focused on supporting the participation of SIDS and LDCs at the annual meeting of the Asia and Pacific Heads of Maritime Safety Agencies and providing technical assistance on effective enforcement of IMO instruments to Member States in need of drafting, updating and bringing into force primary and secondary maritime legislation. 37 The programme SDG 5: Strengthening the maritime sector remained the Organization's primary vehicle for articulating the United Nations system-wide commitment to gender equality and gender mainstreaming, in support of SDG 5 to achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls. The programme has strengthened national and regional capacities through gender-specific fellowships for reinforcing the access to high-level technical training opportunities for women in developing countries, and enhanced career development for women in maritime administrations, ports and maritime training institutes (TC 67/8). The programme also supported the relaunch of the Pacific Women in Maritime Association (PacWiMA); the second regional conference of the Women in Maritime Association, Caribbean (WiMAC) and the seventh regional conference of the Association for Women in Maritime, east and southern Africa (WOMESA). I:\TC\67\TC 67-3(a).docx

Annex 1, page 17 38 The Capacity-building and Training programme focused on human resource development through high-level training of maritime administrators and lawyers at WMU and IMLI (TC 67/9(a) and TC 67/9(b)), and the provision of fellowships for short-term upgrading courses at IMSSEA and IPER. In addition, the programme supported the ongoing development of a ballast water management how to do it manual and the production of a short film on the Polar Code. The programme was further expanded to deliver seminars and national workshops on maritime transport policy, to raise awareness of the need and benefits of National Maritime Transport Policies (NMTPs) with a view to engage countries in the development of NMTPs as a good governance practice to support sustainable maritime development and ensure effective implementation of flag, port and coastal State obligations and responsibilities 39 The programme on Partnerships and Emerging Issues is dedicated to increasing the volume of funds for the ITCP, diversifying the donor composition of its resource base and forging new partnerships for cost-sharing arrangements (TC 67/6(b)). Achievements included strengthening existing partnerships and continuing the development of new regional agreements for the decentralized implementation of the ITCP, the development of policy and operational recommendations for improved global harmonization and coordination of PSC activities; the participation of developing countries in the Asia-Pacific Oil Spill Prevention and Preparedness Conference Spillcon 2016 and at the IMO-GloBallast forum on ballast water management; a scoping meeting on the development of a Project Identification Form for a new GEF-UNDP-IMO project on biofouling and a social media campaign to promote the Day of the Seafarer. The programme co-sponsored, with other organizations, the Torrey Canyon Exhibition: 50 Years of Working Together to Reduce Oil Spills, hosted at IMO. 40 The Enhancement of Maritime Security programme focused on targeted assistance to SOLAS Contracting Governments seeking to improve their level of implementation of SOLAS chapter XI-2 and the ISPS Code and other IMO maritime security measures; and on the development and/or upgrading of related training materials. Assistance was rendered to SOLAS Contracting Governments in relation to the promotion and implementation of the use of the LRIT system. The programme also promoted regional and subregional cooperation and coordination to strengthen maritime security and continued to work with other United Nations agencies to build partnerships and put in place arrangements designed to combat terrorism, piracy and other forms of maritime crime. In addition, countries from east Africa and the Caribbean were assisted through a series of national meetings and table-top exercises in efforts to enhance inter agency collaboration on counter piracy and maritime security issues, particularly incident planning and response and promoting a whole of Government approach to maritime security. 41 The global programme on the IMO Member State Audit Scheme (IMSAS) took into consideration a thorough review of previous technical assistance delivered related to the Scheme, as well as the major areas of recurrent audit findings such as delegation of authority (RO Code), initial actions (legislation) and the need for training of flag State surveyors. A number of national pre-audit technical assistance activities were organized in support to Member States scheduled to undertake the mandatory audit as of 1 January 2016. The programme continued to provide regional training courses for auditors in order to increase the pool of available auditors within all geographical regions. 42 The programme on the Effective Implementation and Enforcement of Energy Efficiency Measures for Ships completed an assessment of the availability of fuel oil (MEPC 70/INF.6 and MEPC 70/5/3). The Energy Efficiency Technologies Information Portal was established and is publicly available on the GloMEEP website; a workshop package was produced to deliver training on the implementation of Model Course 4.05 on Energy Efficient Operation of Ships; the workshop package on Port State Control and Enforcement of MARPOL Annex VI was updated and the initial development was completed on the port energy analysis guidance. I:\TC\67\TC 67-3(a).docx

Annex 1, page 18 43 The IMO Model Courses programme provides a framework tool for managing the production, translation, editing and printing of model courses. In 2016, two model courses were revised: Advanced training for chemical tanker cargo operations and Personal safety and social responsibilities. Work commenced on revising a third model course Radar navigation, radar plotting and use of ARPA which was expected to be completed in early 2017. 44 The programme on the Promotion of the London Convention and London Protocol (LC/LP) contained the technical cooperation assistance provided to developing countries related to the London Protocol, and extended to prospective LC/LP participants. The activities targeted the identification and removal of barriers to countries achieving compliance with ocean disposal agreements and the waste management capacities of those countries. During 2016, a regional workshop in Fiji and two national workshops in Viet Nam and Jordan provided a comprehensive overview of the legal, technical and scientific tools required in the preparation for and accession to the London Protocol. In addition, one participant from a developing country was sponsored to attend LC/LP meetings throughout the year. 45 WMU and IMLI are at the forefront of IMO's capacity-building strategy, supporting post-graduate training in order to maintain a cadre of high-level managers, policy-makers and other key personnel. The programme Support to WMU and IMLI supported the travel costs of IMO headquarters staff members who lectured at WMU and IMLI, and the procurement of consultancy services to IMLI for the review of IMLI's banking and investment practices. 46 The Organization's work in building regional capacity for the repression of piracy and armed robbery against ships in the western Indian Ocean and the Gulf of Aden continued through the Djibouti Code of Conduct programme. In response to recommendations made by signatory States to the Djibouti Code of Conduct, and taking into account the lessons learned from countering piracy, similar initiatives in the Gulf of Guinea and the maritime security table-top exercises, the Djibouti Code of Conduct was amended and broadened in scope to help regional Governments develop capacity to address a range of illicit maritime activities that threaten maritime safety and security in the region, including trafficking of arms; drugs and wildlife; maritime terrorism; illegal, unregulated and unreported (IUU) fishing; illegal oil bunkering; crude oil theft; human trafficking and illegal dumping of toxic waste. In particular, signatory States agreed to new measures including a focus on national organization of security and facilitation, strengthening national capacity, enhanced communication and meeting the Sustainable Development Goals. 47 The West and Central Africa Maritime Security programme delivered capacity-building activities focusing on providing direct assistance to Member States in the region with a view to developing and enhancing their capacity to address issues and challenges in their maritime domains. This included development of national maritime strategies, national maritime security strategies, national maritime security committees and national maritime security implementation plans and procedures. The programme also focused on assistance for the implementation of SOLAS chapter XI-2, the ISPS Code and IMO maritime security measures. 48 The programme on Safe and Environmentally Sound Ship Recycling in Bangladesh, funded by rad, is designed to enhance the development of safe and environmentally sound ship recycling in Bangladesh, with the aim of improving the standards and therefore the sustainability of the industry. As an additional objective, the project aims to facilitate the ratification/accession and effective implementation of the Hong Kong International Convention for the Safe and Environmentally Sound Recycling of Ships, 2009. In 2016, progress was made on the four work packages under the project covering economic and environmental impact studies which produced a scoping study and final study report containing I:\TC\67\TC 67-3(a).docx

Annex 1, page 19 an economic and environmental impact assessment of ship recycling in Bangladesh; planning the management of hazardous materials; refinement of a Government one-stop service; and training module upgrading and preparation of new modules on safety, health and environmental compliance. 49 The programme on Long-term marine environmental projects funded by rad supported the implementation of activities related to the protection of the marine environment, focusing on development cooperation to enhance the capacities of East Asian countries to implement and enforce related IMO conventions, codes and other standards.
