“…Unpacking the emerging BBNJ regime complex” [2] . The data adds detail to the described ways of how IOs became involved in the BBNJ regime complex and makes transparent how the graphs in Figures 1-3 in Langlet & Vadrot (2023) [2] were generated. It derives its relevance from the recognition that the BBNJ Agreement will be placed in an existing institutional landscape [3] and the observation that Article 4. on the relationship between the instrument and other IOs remained a stumbling block throughout the negotiations [4] , [5] as the role of existing IOs in marine biodiversity governance remained contested.…”

“…It also gives contextual factors to the involvement of IOs such as which state mentioned which IO and what is the geographical scope of the mandate of the IO (among others). Following Langlet & Vadrot [2] the involvement of IOs in the BBNJ negotiations is described as a regime complex according to literature of global governance which coined the term “regime complex” to describe situations of multiple and complex regime interplay and overlap [7] .…”

“…One aspect of the BBNJ Agreement is that it will "not undermine" other existing international frameworks or bodies. In this instance, CCAMLR does represent an international body that intersects with several of the package elements of the BBNJ Agreement, such as through ABMTs and MPAs 70 . Much of the concern related to the interactions between CCAMLR and the BBNJ Agreement are related to sovereignty claims within the CCAMLR area, including issues related to the South Georgia and South Sandwich Islands over which the United Kingdom and Argentina have competing territorial claims 71 .…”

With the Biodiversity Beyond National Jurisdiction (BBNJ) Agreement adopted, the negotiations process left questions related to what would be included in the final text and how the BBNJ Agreement architecture would function. The Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR), an international body, has successfully established high seas marine protected areas (MPAs), a key aspect of the BBNJ Agreement. Here, we investigate if and how CCAMLR has influenced negotiations on the BBNJ Agreement and how it may influence the forthcoming structure. This work used ethnographic notes and documents from the negotiations and interviews with actors who overlapped at both the BBNJ negotiations and the CCAMLR meetings to elucidate themes of influence that CCAMLR has had on the BBNJ negotiations. We found that CCAMLR is influencing the BBNJ negotiations in several ways, including through setting precedent and as an example for lessons learned. Additionally, we found that there was a divergence of views on whether CCAMLR would be considered a competent body by the decision-making mechanism of the BBNJ Agreement to establish MPAs due to the issues CCAMLR faces on reaching consensus. We found that some aspects of CCAMLR, such as the exclusivity (i.e., restricted to only actors working within the CCAMLR space) was perceived negatively by interviewees, thus affecting the BBNJ Agreement negotiations through hidden red lines. With the BBNJ Agreement adopted, there is still the potential for CCAMLR to be an example for the BBNJ structure and to be a participant in the BBNJ Agreement architecture.
