Marine spatial planning (<strong>MSP</strong>) is a public<br />
process of analyzing and allocating the<br />
spatial and temporal distribution of human<br />
activities in marine areas to achieve<br />
ecological, economic, and social objectives<br />
that are usually specified through a<br />
political process.<br />
DEFINITION
The development of <strong>MSP</strong> requires two types of<br />
authority:<br />
(1) Authority to plan for <strong>MSP</strong>;<br />
(2) Authority to implement <strong>MSP</strong>.<br />
TASK 1<br />
ESTABLISHING AUTHORITY
When defining the boundaries for your area,<br />
it is important to recognize two different<br />
types:<br />
(1) boundaries for management;<br />
(2) boundaries for analysis.<br />

Depending on their interests, their ways of<br />
perceiving problems and opportunities<br />
concerning the <strong>MSP</strong> area and its resources,<br />
there are often many different<br />
stakeholders; Individuals, groups or<br />
organizations that should be considered for<br />
involvement in <strong>MSP</strong>.<br />
TASK 3<br />
IDENTIFYING STAKEHOLDERS TO INVOLVE IN <strong>MSP</strong>
PRINCIPLE:<br />
A principle is a basic or essential quality<br />
or element determining the intrinsic nature<br />
or characteristic behavior of <strong>MSP</strong>.<br />
GOAL:<br />
A goal is a statement of general direction<br />
or intent. They are high-level statements of<br />
the desired outcome that you hope to<br />
achieve.<br />
OBJECTIVE:<br />
An objective is a statement of desired<br />
outcomes or observable behavioral changes<br />
that represent the achievement of a goal.<br />
TASK 4<br />
DEFINYING PRINCIPLES, GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
\<br />
PRECAUTIONARY<br />
This principle suggests that if a<br />
decision could cause severe or<br />
irreversible harm to society or the<br />
environment, in the absence of a<br />
scientific consensus that harm would not<br />
ensue, the burden of proof falls on those<br />
who advocate taking the action.<br />
INTEGRATION<br />
ECOSYSTEM<br />
INTEGRITY<br />
Working in sectoral and institutional<br />
compartments or “silos” is often an<br />
efficient way to manage, but it creates<br />
significant costs of non-coordination<br />
that should be identified and addressed.<br />
<strong>MSP</strong> can play a critical role in<br />
facilitating coherence and integration.<br />
Integration among levels of government<br />
can help create complementary and<br />
mutually reinforcing decisions and<br />
actions.<br />
The principle implies a primary focus on<br />
maintaining ecosystem structure and<br />
functioning within a <strong>MSP</strong> area. It<br />
includes the recognition that ecosystems<br />
are dynamic, changing and sometimes<br />
poorly understood (therefore requiring<br />
precautionary decision-making).<br />
PRINCIPLES
Planning protected areas as vulnerables<br />
resources of a marine sensible bioma.<br />
GOALS
PROMOTION<br />
Protection of the<br />
necessary conditions<br />
for the maintenance of<br />
protected species.<br />

Create an organization<br />
to manage the internal<br />
waters.<br />

Structured collection of<br />
information.<br />
Sustaing economy policy of new<br />
project to search for missing or<br />
not updated data.<br />
Analysis and integration of<br />
natural macro-area<br />
OBJECTIVES, STRATEGIES, ACTIONS
Areas are “ecologically or biologically<br />
important” because of the higher potential<br />
for, or more lasting consequences of, harm<br />
at that location and the greater potential<br />
for long-term benefits obtained by effective<br />
management.<br />

CONFLICTS:<br />
two major types of conflict:<br />
• Conflicts among human uses (user-user<br />
conflicts);<br />
• Conflicts between human uses and the<br />
marine environment (user-environment<br />
conflicts).<br />
