Along these lines, LIFE Intemares is promoting a change in the marine management model and is laying the foundations to ensure that marine protected areas in Spain are managed in an innovative way, with science and participation as basic tools for decision-making. &nbsp; <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt; font-family:\"Arial Narrow\",\"sans-serif\"\">In this framework, alliances are the engine that allows us to move towards this change in the marine management model. Since the start of the project in 2017, more than 4,500 people and 750 organisations have already been involved in it. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt; font-family:\"Arial Narrow\",\"sans-serif\"\">Among the most innovative actions, participatory processes have been promoted for the preparation of management plans for marine protected areas of the Natura 2000 Network and governance strategies and training of managers, as well as for conservation and recovery plans for species. A marine citizen science programme has been launched with the alliance of the main platform, Sea Observers, of the CSIC, with the aim of involving citizens in the better knowledge of our seas. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt; font-family:\"Arial Narrow\",\"sans-serif\"\">Coordination between administrations has also been strengthened through technical meetings and working groups to promote collaborative work between experts in species and habitat conservation.<\/span> <span style=\"font-size:14.0pt; font-family:\"Arial Narrow\",\"sans-serif\"\"><span style=\"font-family: \"Calibri\",\"sans-serif\";mso-bidi-font-family:Calibri\"> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt; font-family:\"Arial Narrow\",\"sans-serif\"\">Likewise, more than 200 projects have been carried out in line with the objectives of LIFE Intemares, integrating various European funds in their execution. This project, the largest in the field of marine conservation in Europe, has the contribution of the European Union&#8217;s LIFE programme and is complemented by the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund and the European Social Fund, through the Pleamar and Empleaverde Programmes, and the calls for aid from the Biodiversity Foundation. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight:normal\"><u><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt;font-family:\"Arial Narrow\",\"sans-serif\"\">ACHIEVING 30% MARINE PROTECTION<\/span><\/u><\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt; font-family:\"Arial Narrow\",\"sans-serif\"\">Spain has already achieved 12% of protected marine area, <\/span><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt;font-family: \"Arial Narrow\",\"sans-serif\";mso-bidi-font-family:\"Arial Narrow\"\">thus exceeding the international commitment to reach at least 10% by 2020<\/span><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt;font-family:\"Arial Narrow\",\"sans-serif\";color:red\">. <\/span> <span style=\"font-size:14.0pt;font-family:\"Arial Narrow\",\"sans-serif\"; mso-fareast-font-family:\"Times New Roman\";mso-bidi-font-family:Arial; mso-ansi-language:ES;mso-fareast-language:ES;mso-bidi-language:AR-SA\">The LIFE Iintemares project is a tool to continue working towards the goal of achieving 30% protection of the sea by 2030, set out in the recent Declaration on the Climate and Environmental Emergency in Spain promoted by the Government.

To date, nine participatory processes have been initiated for the development of management plans and governance and training strategies. More than 1,500 people have participated in the training sessions aimed at the Navy and the Civil Guard.  &nbsp; <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt;font-family:\"Arial Narrow\",\"sans-serif\"; mso-fareast-font-family:\"Times New Roman\";mso-bidi-font-family:Arial; mso-ansi-language:ES;mso-fareast-language:ES;mso-bidi-language:AR-SA\">In addition, among other issues, <span style=\"color:black\">the Spanish Marine Strategies will continue to be implemented, together with their programmes of measures, and the Master Plan for Marine Protected Areas will be approved by Royal Decree<b>.  <\/b><\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"class_list":["post-97860020","notas_de_prensa_mite","type-notas_de_prensa_mite","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>The LIFE Intemares project recognized by the Go!
