<p> The Blue Planning training course aims to strengthen practical planning and implementation to enable ecosystem-based marine and coastal planning and management. It provides an introduction to the theory and practical starting points of coastal and marine spatial planning. The training course builds on decades of practical experiences and learning, and was conceptualized with the guidance of over 30 marine and coastal spatial planning experts from around the world. The training package is intended for professionals responsible for the planning and management of coastal and marine areas and their natural resources (including a wide range of sectors, e.g. environment, fisheries, tourism, transportation, energy, and sea mining), or from cross-sectorial management bodies. </p>
