Online Workshop on Trade-Off Methodology: “Exploring the Trade-offs methodology for MPA/Conservation design, based on MSP4BIO’s Deliverable 4.3”
An online workshop on the Trade-Off Methodology, based on MSP4BIO’s Deliverable 4.3, will be held to advance the understanding and application of sustainable marine conservation practices. This event is a significant component of the MSP4BIO project, targeting professionals and stakeholders involved in the sustainable management of marine spaces.
Workshop Details
- Date: June 25, 2024
- Time: 2-3 PM CET
Workshop Overview
The focus of Deliverable 4.3, “Trade-offs Method for Protection and Restoration in MSP-ESE3,” is to enhance the management of marine spaces and safeguard ecosystem services through a participatory integrated trade-off scenario. This approach effectively balances protection and restoration efforts, making it crucial for the design of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs).
Key Highlights
- Guidelines for Trade-Off Methodology: The methodology’s application to MPA design will be explained, emphasizing the assessment and negotiation of the impacts of various actions and strategies on marine areas.
- Human Activities and Participatory Mapping: The workshop will address the complex relationships between human activities and demonstrate how participatory mapping can facilitate the exploration of negotiation solutions.
- Practical Tools and Frameworks: Information will be provided on how trade-off scenarios are integrated into practical decision-making tools for marine resource management.
Workshop Content
- Preparation: Insights into the initial steps required for applying the trade-off methodology will be provided.
- Collaborative Engagement: Methods for engaging stakeholders in the development of integrated trade-off scenarios will be covered.
- Post-Meeting Actions: Steps necessary to finalize and implement the scenarios into practical frameworks will be outlined.
Learning Outcomes
Participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of creating integrated scenarios, providing valuable knowledge for evaluating and negotiating the outcomes of different actions and strategies in marine areas. This workshop embodies the collaborative spirit and addresses the dynamic challenges of maritime management.
