Marine Protected Areas and Artisan Fishing Integrated Management through environmental awareness and education

Closed

The AMPPA project aims to create a new management tool for Marine Protected Areas (MPA), in consideration of the crucial role for the protection of the marine environment and for the sustainable development of coastal and marine areas, as the driving forces of the integration between resource protection needs and development needs of coastal communities. The tool proposed by the project is an integrated management of MPAs that directly involves all operators (public bodies, anglers, citizens, tourists, etc.) also through awareness-raising and environmental education actions. AMPPA proposes a correct management of the marine protected areas concerned through: 1) Raising awareness and environmental education of operators and users; 2) The implementation and adaptation of a method of Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Management that will result in the drafting of the "Implementing regulation and organization of the MPA", aimed at regulating in detail the activities allowed within the MPA
