27th-29th March 2008Final Conference Ravenna, ItalyOnly thanks to the courtesy and hospitality of the Emilia-Romagna government this additional closing conference of the PlanCoast project, which is officially running out on 15th April 2008, could be held. The first internal day of the meeting was dedicated to the pilot projects’ results of the PlanCoast partners. A series of short but information-loaded presentations have given all partners an overview of eachother’s activities, and more importantly, shared the experience made within the project. As far as the PlanCoast follow-up activities are concerned, the prolongation of project activities has been declared in most non-EU parter countries (due to initial contracting delays). Joint discussion focused on the practical relevance of PlanCoast „messages“ introduced by the PlanCoast Handbook on Integrated Maritime Spatial Planning. The Handbook itself was also presented in the pre-final print version at the meeting. The second – official – day of the Ravenna conference was honoured by the speeches of Mr. Lino Zanichelli, Emilia-Romagna’s Minister for Environment and Sustainable Development, as well as Mr. Andrea Mengozzi, Ravenna Province’s Minister for Environment and ICZM. European Commission’s Directorate-General for Environment was also represented and so was the Barcelona Convention, Adriatic Euroregion and Conference of Peripheral Maritime Regions of Europe (CPMR). Mrs. Angela Schultz-Zehden presented the freshly finalised PlanCoast Hanbook on Integrated Maritime Spatial Planning. Specific aspects of maritime planning such as sand and sediments dredging, off-shore wind parks, reinjection technologies as well as research and monitoring were handled during the afternoon session. The study tour took PlanCoast participants to the natural reserve of the Po river delta to visit the pilot project site of the Emilia-Romanga region. 1st Day Agenda2nd Day Agenda1st Day Presentations: lessons learned from the pilot projects

coastal zones. The 4th PlanCoast conference organised by the German
Federal Ministry of Transport, Building and Urban Affairs (BMVBS) provided
an opportunity to discuss the first results of the PlanCoast project
in the context of climate change effects, growing sea-use pressures
as well as current policy developments. Conference DocumentationProgramme FlyerList of ParicipantsPresentations

The organiser of this conference, PAP/RAC Croatia raised the topic of Marine Spatial Planning as a particular aspect of coastal zone managment. In the first day panel discussion both the existing and the anticipated future sea-uses and conflicts in the Adriatic region were referred on from the perspective of each of the Adriatic partner countries. An additional lively input was provided by guest participants from Greece, Tunesia, Malta, Israel, Jordan, Turkey and other Mediterranean countries united in the UNEP MAP ICZM Protocol working group, as well as members of the UNESCO Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC). On the second day morning session two parallel workshops took place: 1) spatial planning practical issues and 2) data collection and processing in GIS databases. On this basis, the possible solutions in terms of a Marine Spatial Planning and its alternatives for each of the participating countries were discussed in the final panel. These four workshops and panel discussions have pushed the work on the PlanCoast Recommendations a great deal ahead. A perfect round–up of the meeting was provided on the last day with an educative boat–trip highlighting the multiple sea uses around the Croatian islands.

Over 30 PlanCoast partners and associated specialists took part in this event. During the first half of the meeting held in Schwerin, various aspects of Marine Spatial Planning in the 12sm zone in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern were presented, such as Territoral Impact Assessment (TIA), the impact of nature protection and offshore windparks, the application of GIS and newest techniques for data generation in marine areas. On 5th of July a guided study trip was organized around the Wismar Bay, giving a unique opportunity to view the spatial implications of the some project developments. For the last day of the Study Tour we moved to Hamburg headquarters of the Federal Maritime and Hydrographic Agency (BSH). BSH specialists gave an insight in their work as well as the development and general principles of Spatial Planning in the German EEZ. Apart from that, an internal PlanCoast meeting took place during this Study Tour. The s.Pro team together with the ICZM expert Kira Gee presented and moderated the workshop on the PlanCoast Transnational Report (WP1), dealing with the structure and partners’ input into the report and the extended project web-site.
