AdriaPAN in Lecce 16-12-2013: PROACTNATURA2000


On 16th of December in Lecce an International Conference is organized by Torre Guaceto MPA and Porto Cesareo MPA, with the sponsorship of Italian Environmental Ministry, FederParchi and funded by ETCP Greece Italy, under a project called PROACTNATURA2000.
This project has as its aims the development of a common strategy for the improvement of cross-border governance of protected sites at sea and along the coastline, with a special focus for the Marine SCIs. The project activities are finalized to the draft of a Management Plan for the integrated governance of coastal areas, shared between the project partners, and consistent with the Protocol on Integrated Coastal Zone Management in the Mediterranean and the Barcelona Convention, signed in Madrid in 21.01.2008.
The planned International Conference is focused on the challenge of the Marine SCIs Management, between legislation, effectiveness in the protection and management and funding, open to researchers, managers, decision makers, Institutions. The expected result is to bring together all the interested parties and propose an active dialogue between stakeholders at different levels (regional, national, international) in the management of coastal areas.


Il prossimo 16 Dicembre 2013 a Lecce si terrà una International Conference sul tema “Gestione Integrata delle aree costiere”, nell’ambito del Progetto PROTECTION ACTIONS FOR CROSS-BORDER AND JOINT MANAGEMENT OF MARINE SITES OF COMMUNITY INTEREST (NATURA 2000), finanziato dal Programma Operativo Grecia-Italia 2007/2013, Assieme all’AMP Torre Guaceto (Lead Partner del progetto), l'AMP di Porto Cesareo, la Regione Puglia – Ufficio Parchi, l’Ente di Gestione del Golfo di Amvrakikos, l’Ente di Gestione della Laguna di Messolonghi ed ETANAM (Agenzia di Sviluppo delle Prefetture di Arta e Preveza).
L’evento è patrocinato da  MedPan, la rete dei soggetti gestori di aree marine protette del Mediterraneo, Adriapan, Network delle Aree Protette costiere e marine del Mar Adriatico,  AIDAP, Associazione italiana dei Direttori e funzionari delle Aree Protette, Federparchi, associazione nazionale dei parchi e delle aree protette, e Ministero dell'Ambiente.
Il progetto si pone quale obiettivo lo sviluppo di una strategia comune transfrontaliera per il miglioramento della governance dei siti protetti in mare e lungo la fascia costiera e culminerà nell’elaborazione di un Piano di Gestione per la governance integrata delle aree costiere, condiviso tra i partner di progetto, e coerente con il Protocollo sulla Gestione Integrata delle Zone Costiere del Mediterraneo e della Convenzione di Barcellona, stipulato a Madrid nel 21.01.2008.

In Brussels for Marine Strategy

Panel 3A – Spatial planning and Coastal Zone Management

MPAs are an asset for Pillar 3 of the Adriatic-Ionian strategy: they could serve as reference point and control sites for marine biodiversity, but also as dissemination/awareness tool.

Having in mind the present situation of the marine environment, we have to ask for more MPAs in the adriatic-ionian sub-region. Its high diversity is spanning from the Jabuka pit to the wetlands in Albania and on the northern side, to the croatian and slovenian cliffs, to the sandy shorelines.

Thinking about the DIVERSITY we share within this stretch of sea, we have to consider the diverse richness of our sites: landscapes, languages, cultures, historical heritage, wine and food, and all of this in a space as little as the Adriatic-Ionian sub-region. Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) host biodiversity hotspots and are - most of the times - spawning grounds or nursery areas for fish populations, thus serving fish stock populations targetted by fishing industry. The majority of these areas host historical sites (i.e. Brijuni), or high quality agriculture (i.e. Torre Guaceto), fishing grounds (i.e. Torre del Cerrano), specialised aquaculture (i.e. Po river mouth), tourist attractions such as wine/food specialities or folkloristic events. Diversity is attractiveness.

As the financial resources to manage MPAs are scarse, more coordination is needed among ministries, E.U. institutions, donors. Ministry for environment at first, but also agriculture/fisheries, historical/archeological goods, tourism authorities. The environment protection can not be limited to the coastal area, but should include open sea – deepwater sites, fishing management zones, historical sites and food/wine attractions too, for a better efficiency of the scarse financial resources. The result would be the overall protection of our marine-coastal heritage - taking into consideration each one of its aspects - bringing it to be more attarctive. A model could be the one of the “Coastal action groups”, but tailored on a broader vision of environment and cultural conservation.


The network of MPAs represented by AdriaPAN – a regional branch of the wider MedPAN network – is presently facing several threats: climate change and alien species (for which detailled monitoring activity is more and more urgent) and local-scale human activities for which more control is needed. This second group encompasses marine litter and sewage treatment plants, industrial use of huge amounts of seawater as the one foreseen for LNG regasification plants, oil prospection activities using air-guns which are harmful for delicate species such as dolphins and monk seal.

A new member, the Ripabianca Natural Reserve, and three new associated, joined AdriaPAN

.
.
The Natural Reserve of Ripabianca, close to Jesi in Italy is a new member of AdriaPAN. The director Mr. Belfiori participate to the last workshop "AdriaPAN in Europe" held in San Benedetto Tronto (Ita) on the end of January and he was excited about that. He submitted the formal request only after a verify conducted with the AdriaPAN secretariat. The Ripabianca is, in fact, a river reserve not exactly on the coast. It is the second Protected Areas admitted to become meber that are neither marine or coastal one. The first one was the Natural Reserve of Calanchi di Atri. Both of them are WWF Oasi.
With this new member other three new associated have adhered to AdriaPAN: The Environmental Biology Department of the University of Rome3; The CRAS srl- Research Center for Environment and Sustanible Development, from Rome as well, and the MedCEM- Mediterranean Center for Environment Monitoring from Montenegro.

La Riserva naturale di Ripabianca, vicino Jesi in Italia è un nuovo membro AdriaPAN. Il direttore, Dr. Belfiori, ha partecipato all'ultimo workshop "AdriaPAN in Europe" svoltosi a San Benedetto del Tronto alla fine di gennaio e si è detto entusiasta dell'organizzazione. Ha presentato la domanda formale solo dopo una verifica condotta con il segretariato AdriaPAN. Ripabianca è, infatti, una riserva fluviale non esattamente sulla costa. E' la seconda area protetta ammessa a diventare membro AdriaPAN che non è  marina o costiera. La prima è stata la Riserva Naturale dei Calanchi di Atri. Entrambe sono Oasi WWF.
Oltre questo nuovo membro anche tre nuovi associati hanno aderito ad AdriaPAN: Il Dipartimento di Biologia Ambientale dell'Università degli Studi di Roma 3; il CRAS -Centro Ricerche per l'Ambiente e lo Sviluppo Sostenibile, anch'esso di Roma, e il MedCEM-Centro Mediterraneo per il monitoraggio ambientale del Montenegro .
