Money is needed: to hire and train competent staff, particularly in financial management; to manage and monitor the protected area; to work with local communities and other stakeholders; to invest in and maintain infrastructure and equipment; to carry out surveillance patrols and enforce regulations; and to monitor the impact of conservation work.<\/p><p>The underfunding stems directly from a lack of reliable information regarding the costs of setting up and managing a protected area, and from a persistent tendency to focus on the expense of protected areas rather than the ecological and socio-economic benefits they bring about.<\/p>                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                                                        <div class=\"bdt-tab-content-item \" data-content-id=\"not-all-protected-areas-have-a-management-plan\">\n                        <div>\n                            <p>Having a business plan is crucial to securing a protected area\u2019s financial sustainability. Having no plan, or one that is out of date, directly affects the management team\u2019s capacity to protect the area\u2019s ecosystems effectively.<\/p><p>To be able to create a business plan and keep it relevant, a protected area needs to have a management plan in place that sets out its mission, goals and conservation activities, and the means required to achieve them.<\/p><p>Take Europe, for example: despite being one of the best-funded parts of the world for conservation, 47% of Europe\u2019s Natura 2000 marine sites claim to have no management plan (Perry <em>et al.<\/em>, 2020). Given that the situation is even worse in less privileged regions, the number of protected areas worldwide that have a business plan must be minimal.<\/p><p>Yet without a robust business plan, managers struggle to optimise their management costs, carry out long-term financial planning, prioritise their work and research funding opportunities.<\/p>                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                                                        <div class=\"bdt-tab-content-item \" data-content-id=\"budgeting-does-not-always-come-naturally-to-protected-area-managers\">\n                        <div>\n                            <p>The underfunding of protected areas makes it hard to recruit enough competent personnel. Teams tend to be put together according to the needs of the moment, leaving some major skills gaps.<\/p><p>A lack of human resources and expertise in areas such as accounting, fundraising or even communications can prevent protected area managers from finding the time to develop a business plan.<\/p><p>Entrepreneurial skills, such as making efficiencies or financial forecasting, are not always the top priority for such managers, whose expertise is usually in biology and ecology.<\/p>                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n                    \n                                <a href=\"#\" id=\"bottom-anchor-7025001\" data-bdt-hidden><\/a>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    \t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-65a073c elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"65a073c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" id=\"solution\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Our solutions <\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-fb0ffb4 elementor-section-full_width elementor-reverse-tablet elementor-reverse-mobile elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"fb0ffb4\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-d07a5c1\" data-id=\"d07a5c1\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1da0c46 elementor-widget-mobile__width-inherit elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1da0c46\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"subtitle\">Training<\/h4>\n<h2 class=\"title-3\">BlueSeeds has trained personnel in more than 80 protected areas and protected area networks in 21 countries<\/h2>\n<p>Having a multidisciplinary team, BlueSeeds is able to design training programmes that help protected area managers meet their conservation goals and achieve lasting impact.<\/p>\n<p>Our finance and management training courses provide managers with new knowledge and tools that will support them in ensuring the ongoing impact of their work.<\/p>\n<p>BlueSeeds has trained personnel in more than 80 protected areas and protected area networks in 21 countries.

Regular Training Programme and as part of a project to create a regional business plan for the RAMPAO.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of five days\u2019 training combining theory and practical activities, the managers had the skills to maintain a business plan based on the workflow set out in their management plan, manage their area\u2019s income and expenditure, calculate their funding gap and plug it by putting in place various financial strategies.<\/p>\n<p>The Mediterranean MPA managers had access to online course modules developed by BlueSeeds and learnt how to draw up their own business plan using the MedPLAN, a model business plan matrix created by a consortium including BlueSeeds. BlueSeeds delivered similar training to West African MPA managers using a business plan matrix developed by the consultancy firm Baastel.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-2637387 elementor-section-full_width elementor-reverse-tablet elementor-reverse-mobile elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"2637387\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-df3bf64\" data-id=\"df3bf64\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6b95e92 elementor-widget-mobile__width-inherit elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6b95e92\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"subtitle\">Training on management effectiveness<\/h4>\n<h2 class=\"title-3\">Training in effective marine protected area management<\/h2>\n<p>BlueSeeds has developed a training programme designed to help marine conservation managers maximise their effectiveness.<\/p>\n<p>The course lasts five days and includes theory sessions, group workshops exploring case studies, role play sessions, discussion sessions and a field visit.
