Integrated Coastal Zone Management

The objective of the project implemented by the Government of Morocco is to pilot the application of an integrated coastal zone management (ICZM) approach on its eastern Mediterranean coast. ICZM implemented at local level by all users of the coastal resources will leverage rural pollution reduction and protection of biodiversity and ecologically sensitive areas. The project used non-structural and structural interventions, such as training on ecosystem-based co-management, wetlands and dune restoration, and the creation of an artificial reef.
