Virtual Workshop on Marine Spatial Planning in Africa

 

About the Workshop


The Centre for Coastal Management of the University of Cape Coast in collaboration with the University of Liverpool is hosting a day's workshop aimed at providing a platform for engagement of key stakeholders involved in marine spatial planning (MSP) in African countries bordering the Atlantic. The workshop will mobilise individuals involved in policy formulation, academia, civil society organizations and other institutions whose work relate to marine protection, coastal environmental governance and planning.

 

Purpose


This virtual event seeks to encourage the uptake of MSPs whilst considering the challenges and opportunities. The event is part of UCC's and UL's shared goals of supporting and promoting MSP education towards the establishment of an MSP network in Africa.

In addition to other planned actions, the MSP capacity building is envisaged to ultimately facilitate the successful implementation of marine spatial planning in African countries bordering the Atlantic.

 

How to Register


The workshop was virtual and hosted via the Zoom Video Conferencing App. Interested individuals registered to join the workshop before the event date.
