"Guidelines for Planning Marine Coastal Waters and the Adjacent Land Areas at the Local Level" are being developed as part of the EASME/EMFF/2016/1.2.1.6 – Maritime Spatial Planning (PanBalticScope) project.
On 1 April 2021, EASME A3 EMFF became part of the European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency (CINEA) to implement the EMFAF (European Maritime Fisheries and Aquaculture Fund) successor of EMFF. Relevant documents such as data protection notices are being reviewed & updated in light of our current transfer from EASME to CINEA Executive Agency. Thus, after 1 April 2021 any reference to EASME shall be read as CINEA during the transition period.
stakeholder engagement
With growing interest in ocean uses for sustainable economic development, there is an increasing need for cross-sectoral marine spatial planning to balance different resource uses and conservation requirements.
Although stakeholder participation is transversal to other steps of the Marine Spatial Planning (MSP) process, its recognition and adoption is context dependent.
Coastal Management
Multi-use (MU) has been promoted as a viable approach to the effective planning and mitigation of user-conflicts in the marine realm.
SUPREME
The Imagine Approach proposes a set of methods and tools to support the establishment of integrated coastal zone management processes. It was originally designed for use in the Mediterranean, through the engagement of relevant stakeholders.
When Scottish Power Renewables were considering the development of the offshore wind farm, the Argyll Array, 5km off the coast of Tiree, a number of partners came together to consider the socio-economic implications of the development; how negativ
The MSP Challenge board game is a tool which has been used in several MSP stakeholder engagement activities in recent years.
UNESCO-IOC Marine Spatial Planning Programme
The Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission of UNESCO developed a ten-step guide defining the scope and the nature of marine spatial planning. MSP can be a key component to an ecosystem-based management of marine areas and marine resources.
AquaSpace
The AquaSpace deliverable “Case study final reports” provides a detailed overview of the 17 case studies developed by the project to test tools and strategies for the sustainable development and spatial allocation of aquaculture in a variety of en
BONUS BALTSPACE
Developing integrative decision-making underpinned by a diverse knowledge base is seen as essential to meet marine spatial planning’s (MSP) sustainable development aspirations.
MARMONI
This guidance document has been created for the Baltic Sea Region, which would specifically target the impacts of offshore wind farms on biodiversity in the more Northern parts of the Baltic Sea (marine areas of Sweden, Finland, Estonia and Latvia
State Development Plan of Schleswig - Holstein
The State Development Plan (LEP) for Schleswig - Holstein regulates conclusively the spatial objectives and principles for terrestrial and for marine areas.
