Cooperation with ICAM
The Integrated Coastal Area Management of IOC was established in 1997 with the purpose to (i) assist IOC Member States in their efforts to build marine scientific and technological capabilities in the field of ICAM. Within the existing Medium Term Strategy (2008-2013), the ICAM programme’s priority area are :1) Adaptation to climate change in the coastal zones (in particular through the ACCC Project); 2) Development of marine spatial planning methodologies and their application; 3) Development and testing of guidelines for the mitigation of coastal hazards through ICAM; 4) Development and application of performance indicators for coastal management plans and programmes. Collaboration with IODE has been active mostly at the project level in the context of ODINAFRICA phase III and VI, the SPINCAM project, and Caribbean Marine Atlas project.
