Key element supporting ICZM
1.1 Development of ICZM indicators
ICZM and main policies
ICZM and main policies
•
Support the ICZM Recommendation (EU expert Group and indicator
production)
•
Support WFD (river catchments DB)
•
Support the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (especially the ecosystem
based concept and the spatial perspective of the seas)
•
Support the Maritime Road Map (coast/sea uses and spatial planning),
•
Adress main socio-environmental issues (especially marititime activities) in all
EU coasts and seas (Cohesion policy)
•
Support the climate change adaptation Green Book, the flooding Directive
and H2020
•
Support the new EU Comission restructuring of Directorates (DG ENV
Marine unit with Coast and Maritime issue; support DG MARE work)

ICZM work at ETC-LUSI
INDEX
• Work on ICZM since 1992.
• Since ETC creation in 2001, ICZM has been an activity
phare:
– Participation to the EU ICZM Expert Group (DG ENV) since
2002
– Lead of the WG-ID of the ICZM Expert Group (since 2002);
– Participation to high level meetings since today
– Participation in DEDUCE interreg project to develop and produce
the EU first set of agreed indicators (2004-2007)towards a
coastal observatory
– Support to the countries doing their ICZM strategy (2007-2008)
• 2008-2009: participation in EU ICZM Expert Group
meetings to assess how to continue and the different
options (linking ICZM, marine and maritime)

Sustainability of tourism
-Coastal tourism/cruisers maritime activity
– Following UNWTO criteria for sustainable tourism,
most of them have same objectives than ICZM:
• Make optimal use of environmental resources
• Respect the socio-cultural authenticity of host
communities, conserve tangible and intangible
heritage
• Catalyzing benefits for communities
• Maintaining high levels of satisfaction for the user
and for the local populations solidarity and ethic
principles of ICZMlocal sustainable development
Economic well-being of Coastal
communities by NUTS
At European scale, coastal
communities have a slightly
lower population with higher
education qualification.

2. The FP7 PEGASO project on Mediterranean
and Black Sea
Supporting the
ICZM Protocol
• It is a unique legal
instrument on ICZM in
the entire international
community and shall
serve as a model for other
regional seas.
• ICZM Protocol adresses Land and sea ecosystems,
coastal and maritime planning including tourism,
energy, etc., impacts of Climate change and
adaptation, in a multi sectoral /holistic approach
AIMS of PEGASO
• Built on the needs of stakeholders developing simple and efficient
tools (Indicators, mapping of conflicts, environment accounts,
scenarios, coastal and maritime planning )
• Bridging science and decision making in a co-working process
involving users from the beginning and, therefore, building a long
term co-research capacity within the post normal science paradigm
• Will enable end user communities around the Mediterranean and
Black Sea Basins to work together to identify common threats and
solutions in relation to the long-term sustainable development and
environmental protection of coastal zones
• PEGASO build on existing capacities to develop common novel
approaches to support integrated policies and practices for
coastal, marine and maritime realms.
The PEGASO project
(UAB is coordinator)
THE PLATFORM
To construct an ICZM governance platform,
consistent with the aims of article 14 of the
ICZM protocol for the Mediterranean.
OBJECTIVES OF
THE PLATFORM
The ICZM Governance Platform will enable the
science and end user communities to share
data and information and explicit their needs
for tools, so as to build a common
understanding on priority issues affecting the
coastal zones of the two regional seas.
The platform is formed by the PEGASO partners,
nine test fields (the CASES) with their
stakeholders and the end-users Committee.
BUILDING A MED
AND BS SDI
To build a spatial data infrastructure (SDI) for
the Mediterranean and Black Seas.
The ICZM Platform will be supported by the
development and implementation of an SDI:
To organize local geonodes
and standardize spatial data to
support information sharing
on an interactive visor, and to
disseminate all results of the
project.
OBJECTIVES OF
THE SDI
The Spatial Data Infrastructure will share
spatial data in an interactive way:
• To advance in the concept and implementation
of an interactive atlas of the Mediterranean
and Black Seaswork with ICAN and
Envirogrid (FP7)
•
Sharing capacity:
– South-south/
– north-North and
– South-North
BUILDING
TOOLS
PEGASO will refine and further develop efficient
and easy to use tools for making sustainability
assessments in the coastal zone.

New spatial

Developing spatial indicator of habitat richness
Models based on image texture and primary productivity have been applied for
explaining up to 70 % of the variability in species richness (of birds - St-Louis et al,
2006; of birds and butterflies - Seto et al, 2003; of vascular plants – Griffiths and
Lee, 2000)
A test was performed for the region of Doñana national park, on the basis of vegetation index
(NDVI) derived from Landsat TM images, following three steps:
Classification work
for Sea Bed Mapping
With the Marine Directive, countries will have to build a sea bed data
base.
-classification and harmonisation issues are of first importance,
-common support and guidance to countries (following INSPIRE Directive).
 populating ATLAS of coast and sea (ICAN network)
Mapping coast-sea uses
for maritime activities
The shipping routes, the anchorage areas,
the nature protection areas (Natura 2000,
RAMSAR sites and World heritage), the gas
and oil exploitations & connecting
pipelines, the fi shing areas and telecom
cables were mapped.

and by the ICZM

assessment.

ASSESSMENT
To support an integrated regional assessment
for the Mediterranean and Black Sea
coastal and maritime areas, agreed with the
governance platform.
• To identify the main common threats
and priority responses
• To formulate policy response options
at different spatial and temporal scales.
• To produce guidelines for
sustainable planning and assessment.
CAPACITY BUILDING
AND DISSEMINATION
To establish and strengthen mechanisms for
networking and capacity development so as
to promote knowledge transfer and the
continued use of the project outputs.
• Interactive internet portal.
• Training courses.
• Dynamic regional networks.
• Disseminate widely.
• Promote the ICZM Mediterranean and
Black Sea strategic Panel.
PARTNERS
• The foundation and strength of PEGASO is
that it is built upon the long-term work of a
number of key national and international
institutions dedicated to regional
assessment of the Mediterranean and
Black Sea basins in recent decades
• 24 partners : MAP/PAP-RAC/Plan Bleu, IUCN,
PSCBS, MEDCOAST, UNEP-GRID, JRC,
Universities and Research Institutes from
UK, BE, FR, ES, IT, GR, MA, AZ, TN, LB, EG,
TR, RO, UA.
