PAP/RAC initiated Med Alert

27.11.2007

Our experience shows that the results of coastal management practice and research are not always fully exploited by the scientists and practitioners in the field. PAP/RAC has, thus, decided to improve the dissemination of research results so that they are made more usable for policy makers and made helpful in communicating environmental issues to the general public. For that purpose, we have established a newsletter, "Med Alert", with the objective to inform the relevant stakeholders about the current research and practice results in the domain of Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM) as well as of other "hot" topics in the Mediterranean. "Med Alert" will consist of 3 to 4 article abstracts, which, at request, could be bought from the source specified at the bottom of each article. The newsletter will be sent to addresses contained in the PAP/RAC e-mailing list twice a month. However, the possibility of expanding the list of subscribers will be provided. The next issue is due in the beginning of December. With this initiative, we hope to contribute to raising awareness on ICZM in the Mediterranean.
