LIFE INTEMARES has been awarded in category 1 for its commitment, sensitivity and dedication to the protection of marine life and conservation.

To this end, this management must be based on two basic pillars: the active participation of socio-economic sectors and sea users and research as a basic tool for decision-making. To achieve this goal, it is  <span style=\"mso-spacerun:yes\">&nbsp; <\/span>carrying out a broad programme of actions<span style=\"mso-spacerun:yes\">&nbsp; <\/span>aimed at the<span style=\"mso-spacerun:yes\">&nbsp; <\/span>conservation of species and habitats, research, surveillance and monitoring, governance and training, as well as communication, awareness and marine environmental education.<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:0cm;margin-left:106.3pt; margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt; font-family:\"Arial Narrow\",\"sans-serif\"\"><o:p>&nbsp;<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt;font-family:\"Arial Narrow\",\"sans-serif\"\">Throughout these first three years of the project, significant progress has been made towards achieving the objective of effectively managing almost 300 marine protected areas. The declaration of new marine protected areas is one of the lines of action of LIFE INTEMARES, which has set itself the goal of declaring 9 new areas, a commitment that was set out at the last Our Ocean 2019 summit, thus increasing the 12% of marine protected area that Spain already has. To this end, 9 oceanographic campaigns have been carried out to find out the ecological values of these areas.  <o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt;font-family:\"Arial Narrow\",\"sans-serif\"\"><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:0cm;margin-left:106.3pt; margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-align:justify\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:0cm;margin-left:106.3pt; margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-align:justify\"><u><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt; font-family:\"Arial Narrow\",\"sans-serif\"\"><o:p><u>&nbsp;<\/u><\/o:p><\/span><\/u><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-align:justify\"><u><u><b style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight:normal\"><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt; font-family:\"Arial Narrow\",\"sans-serif\"\">Do you want to know more about LIFE INTEMARES?<\/span><\/b><\/u><b style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight:normal\"><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt; font-family:\"Arial Narrow\",\"sans-serif\"\"><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/b><\/u><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-align:justify\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt;font-family:\"Arial Narrow\",\"sans-serif\"\">The LIFE IP INTEMARES project aims to achieve a network of marine areas of the Natura 2000 Network managed in an effective and integrated way, with the active participation of the sectors involved and research as basic tools for decision-making.
