ICZM…ICZM…About 30 years old
Primarily a response to rapid post-war coastal development and tourism…
But new pressures and issuesBut new pressures and issues
ICZMICZM…?an integrated or joined-up approachintegrated or joined-up approach towards the
many different interests
harmonisesharmonises the different policies and decision-making structures
brings together coastal stakeholders, for concerted concerted actionaction towards common goals
Integrates different activities to look at the coast in look at the coast in
a holistic waya holistic way.
ICZMICZM…?
Horizontal integrationHorizontal integration – between sectors and across borders
Vertical integrationVertical integration between levels of
government: state/region/local
a social contract
ICZMICZM…?
a social contract to achieve the optimal solution for the coast
No single “ICZMICZM Solution”
Applies to any geographic scale

ICZMICZM – the way forward
Be clear about what you are trying to achieveBe clear about what you are trying to achieve
SMART targets
Five steps….
ICZMICZM – the way forward
1.1. Visualise itVisualise it – “Mediterranean slope of tomorrow”, communicate a shared vision,
scenario planning “what if?” Lead but Lead but don’t directdon’t direct
ICZMICZM – the way forward
2.2. Measure itMeasure it – learn from the discipline of SEA methodologies, but keep it simple!
ICZMICZM – the way forward
3.3. Achieve itAchieve it – “nothing succeeds like success”, small, easy projects to engage
stakeholders..
ICZMICZM – the way forward
4.4. Mainstream itMainstream it – link securely to mainstream agendas: Lisbon &
Gothenburg, Cohesion, Water Framework Directive etc.
ICZMICZM – the way forward
5.5. Secure itSecure it – provide a strong spatial planning framework on land and sea
