Summary

The final section of the report, 'towards integrated coastal management', examines the planning and management of coastal activities in the UK. The mix of environment, economic and social factors that deliver sustainable development are informing the current debate on how to shape a future of ICZM in the UK. In 2002, the European Parliament and the European Council of Ministers recommended that Member States follow eight principles in formulating national strategies for ICZM and any subsequent measures based on these strategies. The findings of this report are based on research carried out in 2003, using questionnaires, interviews, workshops, Stocktake Panels and case study reports. These methods were used to gather the views of coastal practitioners in the UK. Reference has also been made to the considerable body of information gathered by the EU ICZM Demonstration projects, surveys, research work, reports, and practical coastal initiatives that have taken place around UK during the last decade.
