Marine Spatial Planning (MSP) is spreading across the globe as a new way of achieving sustainable development of the world’s seas and oceans. But what does MSP actually mean? How does it work?
Marine planning is a new approach to the management of our seas. The aim is to ensure a sustainable future for our coastal and offshore waters through managing and balancing the many activities, resources and assets in our marine environment.
The Estonian Maritime Spatial Plan is a national strategic document of spatial development. Therefore, the plan focuses on the principles of spatial development and the activities are not planned in detail. The spatial plan provides guidance and conditions for the next steps in the planning of activities, including those at a local government level. The planning solution is based on environmental considerations and the best knowledge available.
The Plan4Blue project presents four scenarios for how our choices will affect people and the marine nature in the Gulf of Finland and the Archipelago Sea: “Unlimited growth”, “Virtual reality”, “Sustainability above all!” and “Sustainability dilemma”.
