The area hosts over 4 million inhabitants and is characterised by strong urbanisation, intensive resource use and significant environmental pressures affecting both coastal and inland systems.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The project aimed to establish an integrated framework for managing coastal development and environmental protection, addressing growing pressures from urbanisation, pollution and resource overexploitation.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key Objectives<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Building on this context, CAMP Algeria focused on strengthening the basis for integrated coastal planning and sustainable development, combining sectoral interventions with cross-cutting approaches.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The project was guided by the following key objectives:<\/span><\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li

management of water and natural resources<\/span><\/li>\r\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">protect environmentally sensitive natural and cultural sites<\/span><\/li>\r\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">introduce integrated coastal area management approaches into planning and decision-making<\/span><\/li>\r\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">strengthen information systems, sustainability analysis, capacity building and stakeholder participation<\/span><\/li>\r\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">support the development of financing strategies for sustainable coastal management<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2
