Saint Martin, Martinique, Guadeloupe, and French Guiana responded to the invitation, as well as Sint Maarten, Colombia, Cuba, the United States, Belize, Grenada, Sint Eustatius, Trinidad & Tobago, and the Dominican Republic. Bernadette Davis, Vice-President in charge of the environment, represented the Collectivity of Saint Martin, manager of the unclassified lands of the Conservatoire du Littoral, and Sint Maarten was represented by the Nature Foundation.

28 countries in the Caribbean region have signed the SPAW protocol (Specially Protected Areas and Wildlife) and have committed, in accordance with their own legislation and regulations, to take all necessary measures within their territory to protect, conserve, and sustainably manage areas in need of protection, as well as threatened animal and plant species. In Saint Martin, the national nature reserve, the 12 lagoon ponds, and the Agoa sanctuary for the protection of marine mammals have signed the SPAW protocol.
