EAF/5

EAF/5 supported the protection and sustainable management of marine and coastal areas across the Eastern African region by advancing Integrated Coastal Area Management (ICAM) in practice. Bringing together international organisations and national partners, the project combined on-the-ground implementation with the development of planning tools and strategies, helping countries move from concept to application.
