Introduction
The workshop ‘Governing MPAs: getting the balance right’ took place 12-16 October 2009 on the island of Lošinj in Croatia. It was hosted by the Blue World Institute of Marine Research and Conservation, Croatia, with funding from UNEP and the EU PHARE 2006 programme. The workshop was chaired by Dr. Peter J.S. Jones from University College London. The workshop was attended by 25 participants, and 17 case studies of MPA governance were presented and discussed during the workshop. This report summarises the key findings of each case study presented during the workshop, with particular focus on the following areas:
- Basic information of the MPA
- Legal objectives
- Main activities that need regulating to achieve the MPA’s objectives
- Governance framework/approach
- Effectiveness of the MPA governance incentives in addressing conflicts and achieving the MPA’s objectives
- Examples and/or the relative importance of different governance incentives applied in governing the MPA
- Key issues
Follow-up work
It was agreed that the workshop participants would prepare a 4,000-word summary of their case study reports, based on the learnings and feedbacks from this workshop. A revised analytical framework and instructions will be sent to the participants after the workshop to help them prepare their case study summaries. It was agreed that the % contribution of the five categories of governance approach bar charts and analyses would be dropped from the project, as they were too reductive and open to different interpretations. Results and key messages from the case study summaries will be analyzed using a qualitative framework to produce the MPA governance report, expected to be completed by the end of December.
