Abstract
Eastern South Pacific southern right whale population found off Chile and Peru is one of the most threatened whale populations worldwide. In 2012, the International Whaling Commission adopted a Conservation Management Plan and in 2016 an implementation strategy. Here we review CMP actions considered under the 2016 implementation strategy and the first bi-national coordination meeting conducted on March 2017. The CMP proves to be a key framework to facilitate the implementation of conservation measures and enhance international collaboration for the long term recovery of the species.
