A new training course introducing the Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM) and Maritime Spatial Planning (MSP) concepts, as well as opportunities for transboundary implementation will be hosted by Puglia partners in the Palazzo Granafei-Nervegna in Brindisi on Thursday 11 May 2023 as part of the CAMP Otranto Transboundary Project for delegates and representatives from the Puglia region, Ministry of Tourism and Environment of Albania and Ministry of Environment and Energy Security of Italy.

Oliviero Montanaro, Director General IMEES said: “CAMP Otranto offers a unique opportunity to develop international cooperation and promote tools and synergies for joint implementation.”

The course will be based on the MedOpen platform training modules and provide viewpoints from international, Mediterranean, national and local perspectives whilst focusing on the CAMP Otranto Transboundary implementation work between Albania and Italy.

Offering a mix of online and in-person training experiences, participants will get free account access to MedOpen to learn more about the concepts of ICZM and MSP and hear from a host of project experts during the event. Therefore, an average level of English is needed to participate.

Željka Skaricic UNEP MAP PAP/RAC Director said: “It will be an excellent opportunity to hear the latest project developments, drive engagement from key stakeholders, institutions and the local population, and promote future activities of shared interest in the Otranto Strait.”
