provide support for those Parties that request technical assistance in respect of the control and
management of ships' ballast water and sediments,
     RECOGNIZING the valuable technical co-operation activities undertaken in partnership with
developing countries on Ballast Water Management issues under the GEF/UNDP/IMO Global
Ballast Water Management Programme(GloBallast) since 2000,
     BEING CONVINCED that the promotion of technical co-operation will expedite the

         technical co-operation for their effective implementation and enforcement can and does
         contribute to sustainable development; and
     (b) decided that IMO's mission statement, in relation to technical co-operation in the 2000s, is
         to help developing countries improve their ability to comply with international rules and
         standards relating to maritime safety and the prevention and control of marine pollution,
         giving priority to technical assistance programmes that focus on human resource
         development, particularly through training, and institutional capacity building;

         appropriate the supply of necessary equipment and facilities, with a view to strengthening
         national capabilities;
     (d) exchange of information and technical co-operation relating to minimization of risk to the
         environment and human health from transfer of risk to the environment and human health
         from transfer of harmful aquatic organisms and pathogens through the control and
         management of ships' ballast water and sediments;
     (e) research and development of improved ballast water management and treatment methods;
         and
     (f) establishment of special requirements in certain areas in accordance with Section C of the
         regulations of the Convention;
2. REQUESTS FURTHER international development agencies and organizations to support,
including through the provision of necessary resources, technical co-operation programmes in the
field of ballast water control and management, consistent with the Convention;
3. INVITES the Technical Co-operation Committee of IMO to continue providing for
