The Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) of UNESCO and the Directorate-General for Maritime Affairs and Fisheries (DG MARE) of the European Commission launched their new joint initiative MSPglobal on 11-12 February 2019 in Paris, France.
Experts from all over the world contributed to the panels of discussion dedicated to regional visions for MSP and Sustainable Blue Economy and challenges of cross-border/transboundary MSP. They engaged on a wide number of topics through the interactive Slido tool with the audience, both those in situ as well as those following the online webcast from around the world.
The MSPglobal Initiative is designed to support the implementation of the Joint Roadmap to accelerate marine/maritime spatial planning processes worldwide adopted by the IOC-UNESCO and DG MARE in March 2017.
MSPglobal is co-funded by the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund of the European Commission.
