Project description
Built on a transnational partnership with strong knowledge and experience on integrated coastal management and sustainable tourism policies, BleuTourMed_C3 aims at supporting and ensuring synergies between the modular projects selected under the SO3.1 with the objective of creating a cluster of projects able to enhance jointly solutions for the protection and promotion of natural and cultural resources in the Med area through a coherent strategy of Community Building, Communication & Capitalisation.
The project will develop monitoring and community building activities aiming at collecting the main results of the Modular Projects(MPs) as at stimulating the co-ownership of data and results among them.
It will be also in charge of processing these results for the implementation of the policy framework regarding Coastal and Maritime sustainable tourism (MSP, ICZM, UNEP-MAP, Integrated regional development policies on sustainable tourism), as to elaborate a common Communication and Capitalisation strategy for their dissemination. The project will develop 2 main channels to transfer and disseminate the projects’ cluster outputs. The first one will be at a programme level, technically with the Joint Technical Secretariat of the Med Programme and creating synergies specifically with Specific Objectives 3.2 and axis 4. The second channel will target the main MED and EU decision makers.
