MPA4Change aims to enhance the role of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) and restoration as nature-based solutions for climate change adaptation in order to support the achievement of nature conservation targets in the Mediterranean basin, Europe and worldwide.

 

Project in one paragraph

Building on previous projects and in line with the EU Biodiversity Strategy objectives, MPA4Change aims to enhance the role of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) and restoration as nature-based solutions for climate change adaptation. This initiative will result in the development of an action plan for Mediterranean MPAs in view to ensure its long-term sustainability and capacity. To do so, the transferring of ready-to-use toolkits and the creation of a roster of experts to support their effective implementation will be the project´s main lines of action. In addition, MPA4Change will advocate for the integration of its principles into effective public policies at Mediterranean and EU level while joining forces with key EU and regional actors to put MPAs at the front line of climate change adaptation. In order to boost the proposed action plan, MPA4Change will engage has started the 100MPAx30 Challenge, through which the project will strive to engage at least 100 Mediterranean MPAs to adopt climate change adaptation plans by 2030 in order to deliver time-bound results and the achievement of both European and international nature conservation objectives.
