Report


ICZM

Integrated Coastal Zone Management is the 'umbrella' activity of PAP/RAC. It is a continuous, proactive and adaptive process of resource management for sustainable development in coastal areas. Methodology, guidelines, tools and techniques, as well as many practical ICZM projects were completed by PAP.

 

ICZM Protocol 

A new ICZM Protocol in the Mediterranean is the 7th Protocol in the framework of the Barcelona Convention and represents a crucial milestone in the history of MAP. It was signed by fourteen Contracting Parties to the Convention in Madrid on 21 January 2008. The signing of the Protocol came after more than a six-year process of consultation, negotiation and refinement of the Protocol text and dedicated work of all the Parties.
