Too many Mediterranean MPAs are facing a recurrent lack of financing resources, needed to carry out their missions: restoring vulnerable ecosystems & provide services to coastal community.
To help MPAs managers to develop diversified self-generated revenues, our partner, BlueSeeds, produced a practical guide on financing mechanisms.
BlueSeeds now wants to go further and support directly MPA managers in the implementation of such financing mechanisms. To do so, BlueSeeds is launching a one-year FREE support programme for setting up visitor fee systems in Mediterranean MPAs, starting in July 2021. You work for a Mediterranean MPA and you want to implement a visitor fee mechanism in your MPA? Send your application & benefit from this one year FREE support program!
This support program is part of the Co-Managed No-Take zones/MPAs project, funded by the MAVA Foundation, conducted in collaboration with the MedPAN, the SPA/RAC, the WWF, AGIR, LIFE Platform, Notre Grand Bleu, HCMR.
The BlueSeeds team travelled extensively between April and June 2019 to strengthen our network of pilot sites and develop innovative technical solutions for conservation.
The BlueSeeds team had the opportunity to speak at two events on the theme of conservation finance.
Upon the request of the Maltese government, BlueSeeds trained the national MPA network on financial planning and worked on the validation of their business plan.
