Promoting shared stewardship for Mediterranean Coasts

Programme 2021 - 2027 Interreg VI-B EURO Mediterranean (EURO MED)

Date of latest update: 2025-05-27

Description

Description (EN):

The Mediterranean basin is one of the most important hotspots of biodiversity in the world in terms of richness of species and ecosystems. However, human activities and overexploitation of natural resources are resulting in ecosystem degradation and species lost at an alarming rate. The scale of these threats urges for a coordinated transnational approach. COASTRUST addresses the need to sustainably use, manage, protect or restore species, habitats, or ecosystems with the involvement of stakeholders from the connected economic sectors and of citizens, consistently with the European policy framework promoting participatory approaches to foster biodiversity conservation. Besides the prime conservation tool for biodiversity maintenance, represented by protected areas and their harmonized management, the project focuses on environmental stewardship as a form of governance acting at local and community level that reflects the rising influence on economic sectors exerted by environmental principles. In the project, environmental stewardship is applied in coastal areas undergoing anthropogenic pressures and results in the establishment of multistakeholder governance mechanisms aiming to support the management of natural resources at land and sea. The project acts at the strategic methodological level, by providing the conditions to enable environmental stewardship and by releasing a methodology for further transferring COASTRUST approach beyond the project scope, benefiting every Mediterranean citizen; and at the implementation level, by supporting and monitoring pilot activities development. A coastal stewardship strategy and a set of actions are developed for each target area according to its specificities, needs and environmental objectives such as the structure of local economy (fishery, tourism, agriculture, …), stakeholders, natural assets (individual and multiple species, individual habitats, entire ecosystems, integrated human-environment landscapes, …).

Description (FR):

Le méditerranéen est considéré comme l'un des plus importants hotspots de biodiversité au monde en termes de richesse en espèces et en écosystèmes. Les activités humaines et la surexploitation des ressources naturelles entraînent une dégradation des écosystèmes et la perte d'espèces à un rythme alarmant. COASTRUST répond à la nécessité d'utiliser, de gérer, de protéger ou de restaurer durablement les espèces, les habitats ou les écosystèmes avec la participation des acteurs des secteurs économiques connexes et des citoyens, conformément au cadre politique européen promouvant les approches participatives pour favoriser la conservation de la biodiversité. Outre le principal outil de conservation pour le maintien de la biodiversité, représenté par les aires protégées et leur gestion harmonisée, le projet se concentre sur la gérance de l'environnement en tant que forme de gouvernance agissant au niveau local et communautaire qui reflète l'influence croissante sur les secteurs économiques exercée par les principes environnementaux. L'intendance a été principalement mise en œuvre en tant qu'intendance des terres et sera déclinée de manière innovante par COASTRUST dans les zones côtières subissant des pressions anthropiques. La coopération transnationale permettra de construire, à partir d'expériences développées localement, une approche coordonnée pour soutenir la gestion des ressources naturelles à terre et en mer. Le projet agit au niveau stratégique et méthodologique, en fournissant les conditions pour permettre la gérance environnementale et en libérant une méthodologie pour transférer davantage son approche au-delà de la portée du projet; et par la mise en œuvre d'activités pilotes. Dans le cadre du projet, une stratégie d'intendance côtière et un ensemble d'actions sont développés pour chaque zone cible en fonction de ses spécificités, besoins et objectifs environnementaux tels que la structure de l'économie locale, les parties prenantes, les atouts naturels.

Actual Achievements (EN):

COASTRUST progress in the 1st reporting period has been highly satisfactory, with key activities and deliverables achieved in line with the planned timeline. Strong cooperation between Project Partners (PPs) and effective coordination by the Lead Partner, the Region of Western Greece (RWG), facilitated the smooth initiation of the project. RWG ensured timely communication with the project officer and guided PPs through the administrative pre-contracting phase, resulting in the swift finalization of all contracting procedures, which allowed the project to start without delays. Following the project’s approval, RWG led detailed discussions to map out the next steps for project implementation. The Kick-Off Meeting (KOM) in March 2024, organized online by RWG, successfully set the stage for partners to plan and execute their activities for the 1st reporting period. Regular monthly meetings have been held to ensure that each partner stays on track and contributes meaningfully to the project. The Steering Committee and Rules of Procedure have been established, ensuring smooth governance and collaboration among partners. Communication efforts have been a central focus, with partners such as DUNEA playing a pivotal role in designing the project's communication strategy, which includes the creation of the COASTRUST website and social media platforms. These channels, including accounts on Facebook and Instagram, are actively being used to engage a wide range of stakeholders—from local authorities and NGOs to the general public. Communication materials, such as posters and flyers, have been developed and are in the process of being translated into local languages, ensuring that the project reaches diverse audiences across all participating regions. One of the core activities under WP1 has been the development of Methodology 1.0, which provides a unified approach to marine and coastal stewardship initiatives. Partners like SUBMON and UNIROMA3 played a key role in shaping this document, ensuring it addresses the unique challenges and needs of each region's pilot area. The online capacity-building sessions facilitated by SUBMON have empowered partners with the knowledge and tools necessary to implement stewardship activities effectively in their respective regions. These sessions have also helped to define objectives and identify barriers in the coastal areas, ensuring that the methodology is practical and targeted. In WP2, focused on Carbon Footprint Monitoring, significant strides were made with the delivery of the carbon footprint monitoring, coordinated by UNIROMA3. During this reporting period, PPs began collecting carbon data from their pilot areas, which will be integrated into the Programme’s online tool for future analysis. This output aligns closely with COASTRUST’s environmental objectives, emphasizing the project’s contribution to broader European and global climate initiatives. In addition to these technical milestones, COASTRUST has been closely involved with the Natural Heritage Mission, contributing feedback to the Joint Secretariat (JS) and engaging in governance-related activities. Partners participated in Natural Heritage Mission events, including webinars and in-person meetings, fostering collaboration with other projects under the Mission and exploring synergies for future cooperation. This engagement helps position COASTRUST within a wider network of environmental and stewardship projects, promoting knowledge sharing and alignment with overarching sustainability goals.

Relevant linked projects:

LIFE ENPLC
European Networks for Private Land Conservation
(EN), N/A (FR) | LIFE ENPLC intends to build a community of European land conservation practitioners who work together on testing and upscaling the most promising tools for private land conservation, advocating for better financial incentives, engaging citizens, and raising public awareness. To this aim the project focuses on the different instruments that are available in Europe (land stewardship agreements, conservation leases, conservation easements, save harbour / temporary nature agreements, privately protected areas and Result Based Schemes) and on practical examples to show different ways of how private landowners, conservation NGOs and the administration can work together to promote nature conservation/restoration on private land.
The two projects will be able to create synergies to exchange practices and methodologies of multi-actor collaboration, awareness raising and capacity building activities. Furthermore, while the ENPLC project focuses on private land, COASTRUST will focus on a wider areas and will benefit from ENPLC collected experience.
(EN), N/A (FR), LIFE GREENCHANGE
GREEN INFRASTRUCTURES FOR INCREASING BIODIVERSITY
IN AGRO PONTINO AND MALTESE RURAL AREAS
(LIFE17 NAT/IT/000619)
(EN), N/A (FR) | LIFE GREENCHANGE aimed to enhance the ecological value of the agricultural systems of the Agro Pontino and of the northern region of Malta, by planning and implementing green infrastructure and by setting a governance system based on land stewardship. COASTRUST will make use the models of agreements developed by Greenchange (in Italy) and will apply the stewardship in coastal and marine areas, where stewardship experiences are very limited. Unlike Greenchange which was implemented in only two areas (Italy and Malta), COASTRUST will have more case studies at EuroMED level in order to build a large network that applies coastal stewardship. COASTRUST networking activities can be carried out with the contribution of the Life Greenchange partners. (EN), N/A (FR), Interreg MED FishMPABlue2
IMPROVING SUSTAINABILITY OF THE SMALL SCALE FISHERIES IN MARINE PROTECTED AREAS OF MEDITERRANEAN
(EN), N/A (FR) | N/A (FR), The FishMPABlue2 project is the follow-up of the FishMPABlue project (July 2014-June 2015). The projects analysed the management of small-scale fishery within and around protected areas and identified improvements to be implemented through an innovative governance toolkit. They also focused on the social acceptance of such new management measures by stakeholders.
Unlike FishMPABlue1-2, COASTRUST not target only MPAs and fishery. COASTRUST could benefit from an exchange with FishMPABlue1-2 in terms of consideration of fisherman and small scale fishery management in the processes of cooperation among stakeholders. To this purpose, the partners of this project will be invited to COASTRUST’s capacity building activities.
(EN), Interreg MED TUNE UP
Promoting multilevel governance for tuning up biodiversity protection in marine areas
(EN), N/A (FR) | UNIROMA3 and FAMP, partners of COASTRUST, were partners of TUNE UP, a project tackling the need for a strategic and collaborative approach to Med MPAs management and biodiversity protection, by testing and capitalizing the multi-stakeholder/multi-level governance tool of Environmental Contracts. They could exchange within COASTRUST their know-how in building collaborative processes in marine areas, and the methods for developing the stakeholder mapping and local focus groups. Unlike COASTRUST that is focuses on the coast-sea interface, TUNE UP targeted marine protected areas. Since both projects are concerned with the improved quality of marine and coastal resources, TUNE UP partners can be invited to the capacity building or networking activities and to the COASTRUST final conference. (EN), N/A (FR), Interreg MED WETNET (EN), N/A (FR) | FAMP, partner of COASTRUST, was also involved in the WETNET project which developed environmental contracts in wetlands pilots (Tune UP predecessor). As for TUNE UP, the participatory process developed could be used within COASTRUST and WETNET partners can be invited to the capacity building activities and to the COASTRUST final conference. (EN), N/A (FR), N/A (FR), H2020 COASTAL
Co-creating evidence-based business roadmaps and policy solutions for enhancing coastal-rural collaboration and synergies
(EN) | COASTAL intends to develop synergies between coastal and rural areas mainly devoted to define business road maps and policy guidelines. Business action plans, quantitative data and scientific models are not addressed by COASTRUST, although multi-actor analysis and integrated coastal-rural planning and coastal-rural synergy will be at the core of COASTRUST’s local strategies. Both projects are concerned with building alliances between land and sea therefore COASTRUST will benefit from the dynamics model developed by COASTAL. Interesting interactions between the two projects can be built during the capacity building sessions and the development of the strategies. (EN), N/A (FR), N/A (FR), Baltic Stewardship Initiative (EN) | The Baltic Stewardship Initiative brings together actors from the entire food chain, from farmers, to the retail trade, to work together to reduce nutrient leakage to our waterways, lakes and seas and increase the circulation of plant nutrients. The two projects start from the same principle of stewardship but the first is implemented only in Sweden and in the Baltic Sea, COASTRUST intends to apply the coastal stewardship tool at the Euro-Mediterranean level, so there is no geographical overlap between the two projects. The two projects could mutually benefit each other as they can exchange feedback, methods, criticalities and best practices (EN), N/A (FR), LIFE TERRACESCAPE - Employing Land Stewardship to transform terraced landscapes into green infrastructures to better adapt to climate change
(EN), N/A (FR) | N/A (FR), The LIFE TERRACESCAPE project aims to demonstrate, on the Aegean island of Andros, the use of drystone terraces as green infrastructure resilient to climate change impacts. The project will promote climatic adaptation by mobilising scientific knowledge, traditional farming and land stewardship (LS) practices for a large-scale revitalisation of island terrace farming. Unlike TERRASCAPES that apply the land stewardship on a specific island, COASTRUST will apply the stewardship in different contexts. The two projects have different application contexts, TERRACESCAPE deals with agricultural areas while COASTRUST with coastal and marine areas. However, the two projects, both having an application in areas bordering the Mediterranean Sea, will be able to exchange practices and discuss together the criticalities and opportunities in applying the stewardship tool.

Contribution to wider strategies and policies:

EuropeanGreenDeal Within the Green Deal, COASTRUST will especially contribute to the Biodiversity Strategy, contributing to point 2.2.6. “Restoring the good environmental status of marine ecosystems” in its requirement to set area-based conservation-management measures, especially through its approach based on environmental collaboration that has the aim to find a balance between nature protection and local development.
COASTRUST will contribute to the Horizon Europe’s Missions “Healthy oceans, seas, coastal and inland waters” which recommends to propose new governance models and to build partnerships with governments, businesses, universities and civil society. Specifically, coastal stewardship represents a collaborative governance model to better manage coastal areas through the involvement of public and private local stakeholders.
TerritorialAgenda2030 In its intent to set place-based collaborative governance processes, COASTRUST is consistent with the principle of territorial cohesion, where it aims at helping “to encourage decision makers at all governance levels to unleash the unique potential of territories with specific geographies and adequately address the constraints of these areas through integrated and cooperative approaches” (48) and by “improving the integration of terrestrial and maritime spatial planning” (55).
Specifically, the aim to test in different contexts coastal stewardship concurs to the points of the T.A. (15) “to implement multi-level governance and place‐based approach to policy making” and (59) for “creating resilient local economies and benefits for the environment”.
Finally, COASTRUST with its aim to implement agreements and local action plans in different pilots and define a joint methodology concur to the T.A. aim to “enhance participatory implementation of the strategies” (22).
EUStrategyAdriaticIonianRegion Some of the COASTRUST partners belong to countries participating in the EUSAIR (Croatia, Italy, Albania and Greece). By promoting environmental collaborative governance approach, COASTRUST can contribute to the Environmental quality pillar of the EUSAIR and to the following objective:
- contributing to the goal of the EU Biodiversity Strategy to halt the loss of biodiversity and the degradation of ecosystem services in the EU by 2020, and restore them in so far as feasible, by addressing threats to marine and terrestrial biodiversity.
Other COASTRUST, thanks to its participatory and place-based approach for the development of stewardship processes, allows to target the 6 objectives of the Mediterranean Strategy for Sustainable Development. Especially, by framing a collaboration between different stakeholders to balance nature conservation and local development, COASTRUST will help to fulfil the objective 1. "Ensuring sustainable development in marine and coastal areas" and 6. "Improving governance in support of sustainable development".
Other COASTRUST fulfils the principle of cooperation among Member States and at sea basin level of the EU Maritime Spatial Planning Strategy. The development of a new methodology for coastal stewardship at Med level contributes to the achievement of the goal of reducing conflicts and creating synergies between different activities. Furthermore, the project, working on the relationship between land and sea helps the achievement also of the Land-sea interaction (LSI) that is also highly related to the economic benefits of MSP and the importance of given maritime uses covered by the MSP for the economic development.
Other
At the European level, given the worrying impacts of climate change on the coasts, the possibility of activating agreements between stakeholders to better perform local strategies and plans would make it possible to achieve the priority 2.2.1. "Improving adaptation strategies and plans" of the EU Strategy on Adaptation to Climate Change. Furthermore, the stewardship processes will allow the implementation of NBS at coastal and marine level and therefore also target the priority 2.2.4. "Promoting nature-based solutions for adaptation".
Other According to the objectives to protect natural resources of the EU Marine Strategy Framework directive, Water Framework Directive and European Habitats Directive, COASTRUST promotes motivations and enable the direct actions of actors to protect, restore or sustainably use the environment.
Other
The participative processes and the collaborative governance approach introduced by COSTRUST at Euro-med level allow to target the objectives of the Barcelona Convention, especially to ensure sustainable management of natural marine and coastal resources; to integrate the environment in social and economic development; to protect the natural and cultural heritage; to strengthen solidarity among Mediterranean coastal States.
