Spanning the entire Mediterranean coastline &#8211; from Hof Ashkelon to Matte Asher &#8211; it engages 21 coastal authorities with diverse demographic and governance structures.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CAMP Israel translates ICZM principles into actionable tools and operational mechanisms for coastal and marine management. By strengthening institutional capacity and fostering stakeholder coordination, the project addresses critical challenges, including climate change, urban pressure, and environmental conservation. Building on previous CAMP experiences across the Mediterranean, the project also integrates new approaches such as marine spatial planning (MSP) and land\u2013sea interactions to create a forward-looking coastal management framework.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Key objectives<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">strengthen the capacity of coastal authorities to implement ICZM principles<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">develop practical tools for climate change adaptation, sustainable coastal tourism, and coastal infrastructure<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">establish an integrated governance mechanism for coastal stakeholders<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">promote coordination between national, regional, and local institutions<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">support participatory processes involving local communities and stakeholders<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">enhance dissemination of knowledge, tools, and best practices<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Main results<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">delivered ICZM capacity-building programme for coastal authorities and professionals<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">developed a comprehensive and inclusive ICZM guide tailored for coastal authorities<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">produced baseline assessment and mapping for coastal land cover change (IMAP CCI25 indicator)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">created toolkits aligned with ICZM principles to facilitate adaptation to climate change, promote coastal tourism, and foster sustainable coastal facilities<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">strengthened stakeholder engagement and increased awareness of ICZM principles through workshops, training sessions and participatory processes<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Partnership<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ministry of Environmental Protection (Israel)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">UNEP\/MAP \u2013 Barcelona Convention system: PAP\/RAC and INFO\/RAC<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":8157,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"project-category":[204],"project-status":[194],"class_list":["post-8155","project","type-project","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","project-category-camp","project-status-completed"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.paprac.org\/hr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project\/8155","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.paprac.org\/hr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.paprac.org\/hr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/project"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.paprac.org\/hr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8157"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.paprac.org\/hr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8155"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"project-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.paprac.org\/hr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project-category?post=8155"},{"taxonomy":"project-status","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.paprac.org\/hr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project-status?post=8155"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
