1 ICZM Themes
“ ICZM should based on a broad overall perspective (thematic and geographic), which will take into account the interdependence and disparity of natural systems and human activities with an impact on coastal areas” (2002/413/EC).
Key issues of the Polish National ICZM Strategy:1. Population welfare2. Safety of the coast3. State of environment
Substantial Criteria
How profoundly do following issues find consideration: a) socio-economy
b) coastal protection and c) environment, including nature protection

2 Thematic Integration
Are the thematic parts well integrated with each-other?
Are synergies between them identified?
Substantial Criteria
• Practical approach
↓
• Integration
↓
• Creating synergies

3 Local specificity
In particular, coastal zone management should be based on:
“… local specificity and the great diversity of European coastal zones” (2002/413/EC)
Is local specificity described in the Study?
Alternatively, does the document show a distinct thematic dominant?
Substantial Criteria

4 Goals and measures
‘Smart’ formula: Specific, Measurable, Acceptable, Realistic, Time-phased.
E.g. “Special attention should be paid to maximal protection of coastal forests against damage caused by human pressure”
Better: “Coastal forest in Zone A1 should be protected by effective visitor-steering mechanisms (signs, pick-nick area, attractive paths etc.) in Zone A2”
NO SECTOR-GOALS! Better: small-scale zoning for cumulative goals and measures
How smart and cumulative are the goals and measures?
Substantial Criteria

5 Legibility
Understandable text ↓ Better integration ↓ Participation
↓ Implementation
Formal Criteria
Is the language simple and concise?
Is the layout clear?
Are the chapters structured and labelled
in a logical manner??

6 Accessibility
“ICZM process should be open and transparent” (HYDER 1999)
“Environmental information has to be available without an interest having to be stated; and, if possible, in the requested form” (Art 4. Aarhus Convention)
Essencial condition for -> Participation
Formal Criteria
Is the plan available online?Is it easily accessible
in the municipality council?

7 Maps Formal Criteria

text possible?Are all goals legibly covered by the Plan?
