RESEARCH PROJECTS 42 Governance and Law SUSTAIN: ASSESSING SUSTAINABILITY AND STRENGTHENING OPERATIONAL POLICY Research Centre/Department/School: CMRC Start Year: 2010 End Year: 2012 Funding Body: INTERREG IVC Researchers: Cathal O’Mahony, Sarah Twomey Contact PI: Cathal O’Mahony (c.omahony@ucc.ie) Website: http://www.sustain-eu.net The increasing intensity of human activities along our coastline (e.g. the development of ports and harbours, coastal protection, land reclamation, tourism and sand/gravel extraction) will impact on coastal communities and natural habitats. The key objective of SUSTAIN is to have in place, at the end of three years, a fully implementable policy tool, applicable for all 22 coastal states of the EU, which will ensure that the integrated management of coastal issues will be sustainable. This entails the agreement within the project, of a set of criteria which are readily measurable (using indicators) and which cover both the threats of an unsustainable development and the opportunities provided by a sustainable future which faces all coastal authorities and communities throughout Europe. The SUSTAIN project partnership comprises 13 partners (including authorities [regional and local], universities and NGOs); and the project is pan-European in scope with partners representing the N. Atlantic and S. Atlantic seaboards, the Mediterranean, Baltic and Black Seas KEY PUBLICATIONS & OUTPUTS To date, SUSTAIN has organised six international workshops with a focus on aspects of sustainability, and methodologies for measurement of sustainability. Key to the success of SUSTAIN is the exchange of good practices in terms of implementing sustainability and positively influencing policy to support sustainability. The results of the project’s activities will be used to develop two guides: – A Guide for Sustainability Improvement – An Implementation Guide for Authorities (local and regional). In addition two reports will be produced, so that the results can be accessed throughout the EU: – A report on the exchange of experience – A report on the sustainability criteria and their assessment. The project activities and outputs will be presented at the SUSTAIN International Conference – “Delivering Sustainable Coasts”, taking place in Southport, UK, September 18th-19th 2012. Sustain partners at workshop in Samothraki, Greece, 2011.
