Description
The Study on Integrating an Ecosystem-based Approach into Maritime Spatial Planning was contracted by the European Commission (by the Executive Agency for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises, EASME, with DG Maritime Affairs and Fisheries)1. It was awarded to a consortium that brings together Milieu Consulting with ACTeon, the Baltic Environment Forum, Fresh Thoughts Consulting, GRID-Arendal and Wageningen Marine Research. The project started in November 2019.
The main objective of the study is to:
- propose feasible and practical approaches and guidelines for applying the EBA in MSP with the presently available information
- a practical method or tool for evaluating, monitoring and review the application of EBA in MSP
