UNIDO looks at processes to promote sustainable management of coastal zones
NAIROBI, 15 November 2011 – An integrated coastal zone management (ICZM) training exploring dynamic and multidisciplinary processes to promote sustainable management of coastal zones will be held in Watamu, Kenya from 21-25 November 2011. The main output of the training will be the development of an ICZM strategy and a work plan for the Kenya and Tanzania demonstration sites.
ICZM is a process for the management of the coast using an integrated approach, regarding all aspects of the coastal zone through ecosystem based planning while taking note of, geographical and political boundaries, in an attempt to achieve sustainability. The concept evolved in 1992 during the Earth Summit of Rio de Janeiro.
