Descrição

This paper includes the proposals made in the report "Basis for a National Strategy for Coastal Zone Management" prepared for the Portuguese Ministry of Environment, Territorial Planning and Regional Development (MAOTDR). The final version of that report was presented in June 2006. This paper describes a theme framework followed by a discussion of concepts. Nine Primary Principles, eight Principal Objectives, and thirty-seven Strategic Options for an Integrated Coastal Zone Management are then presented. These Strategic Options are set hierarchically according to their sequential priority, identifying the dominant types of Associated Measures. The analysis of these arrives at a set of Structural Measures, which interlink and aggregate various actions and propose a new method of integrated management for the coastal zone, which includes the "Legal Basis of Coastal Zone"; the Organization System; the Action Plan and Monitoring.
