Coast and Marine Management

Coast and Marine Management involves planning and regulating activities in coastal and ocean areas to protect ecosystems, support sustainable use, and ensure safety. It includes managing resources like fisheries, conserving habitats such as coral reefs and mangroves, controlling pollution, and overseeing maritime transportation. The goal is to balance economic development with environmental health, ensuring that both communities and ecosystems thrive now and in the future. Effective management often involves collaboration among governments, scientists, local communities, and industry stakeholders.
