Coastal and Ocean Management
Coastal and ocean management involves the sustainable use and protection of coastal areas and ocean resources. This includes balancing economic activities like fishing, tourism, and shipping with environmental conservation efforts to protect marine ecosystems. The goal is to ensure healthy oceans and coastlines for future generations while providing benefits to communities. Effective management requires collaboration among governments, local communities, scientists, and stakeholders to create policies that address challenges like pollution, climate change, and habitat loss, ensuring a harmonious relationship between human activities and natural ecosystems.
