 COASTANCE TECHNICAL SEMINAR in ROME 26th-27th January

The Coastance Technical Seminar in Rome (at the ISPRA offices in Viale Vitaliano Brancati 48) was held last 26th and 27th January to share and review COASTANCE main issues in depth.

Nine partners representing Mediterranean coastal Administrations from France, Italy, Spain, Greece and Cyprus made an overview on the issues addressed with the scientific contribution of a number of eminent Universities and Institutes, including ISPRA (High Institute for Environmental Protection and Research) - which kindly hosted this Technical Seminar.

The seminar was opened by the ISPRA Director for Impacts Mitigation and Prevention Department, Mr Massimo Gabellini, the Coastance lead partner, Mr Christos Partsias representing REMTH region, and Mr Paolo Lupino, Lazio Region.

The COASTANCE Technical Seminar was scheduled in 2 days and divided into 4 sessions: (1) Mediterranean coastal planning: clustering opportunities and perspectives for 2014-2020; (2) Component 5: Guidelines for Environmental Impact Studies focused on coastal protection works and plans; (3) Component 3 - Coastal risks : Submersion and Erosion; (4) Component 4: Territorial action plans for coastal protection management.

A particular focus was dedicated to the presentation of the  recently established cluster FACEcoast  (four European projects already joined with more than 70 partners involved). This cluster intends to capitalise the best results on coastal integrated management and the groundwork, in order to carry out a wider action in the context of the new European financial programming period 2014-2020.
