Towards an Atlantic Vision for MSP

In May 2021, we held a joint webinar with the European MSP Platform and the Assistance Mechanism for the Atlantic Action Plan, looking at transboundary issues in the European Atlantic region and how we might develop a set of shared principles for maritime spatial planning (MSP).

The event was part of the European Maritime Day ‘In My Country’ programme and delegates represented MSP authorities, research institutions and a wide range of MSP stakeholders.

There were presentations on the characteristics of the European Atlantic region and its progress on MSP; on data use and sharing, land-sea interactions and the blue economy; on the experience of the Baltic region and the development of an Atlantic Vision; and discussions hosted by award-winning Irish journalist, Karen Coleman.
