Telling the story of MSP across Europe with five Maritime Spatial Planning projects supported by the EMFF

MSP in Europe is an ambitious and collaborative project involving Member states, administrations, research institutions, industries and  society as a whole. MSP means cooperating across borders and sectors for a smart, sustainable, productive, and fair use of the maritime space. In the context of the emergence of the first national maritime spatial plans presented by Member states in 2021, the European MSP Assistance Mechanism has produced a six minute video clip introducing five representative projects in different European maritime basins, supported by the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund (2014-2020).
