This year, BLUE4ALL participated with the presentation: “BLUE4ALL, facilitating the Blue Parks Community”
This workshop, part of the EU Blue Parks Initiative under the EU Mission “Restore our Ocean and Waters by 2030”, aimed to foster a comprehensive understanding of the effective management of EU Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), including the crucial coastal zones and the dynamic land-sea interfaces. The workshop brought together experts and stakeholders to discuss and share insights on the challenges and opportunities in marine and coastal biodiversity protection and restoration. Through presentations, case studies, and interactive discussions, the workshop highlighted key EU funded projects and research innovations in effective marine management, delve into policy development needs, and explore participatory approaches from EU Member States, regional, and local stakeholders.
This was the second event of the series of workshops of the EU Blue Parks Community, and we invite you to become an active member of this Community.
Subsequent workshops will address a variety of themes, from identifying and establishing marine protected areas, increasing their interconnectivity, and improving their effective management, governance and financing.
