The main idea of this proposed project is the use of systematic conservation planning approach for the design of a network of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) for the entire Mediterranean Sea. This globally significant region, with high levels of biodiversity and many endemic species, has been subjected to human exploitation and degradation for thousands of years; yet it has received low levels of protection. Current MPAs do not adequately represent the biological diversity of the region. The aim is to protect the unique marine biodiversity of this ecologically important area and contribute to the persistence of the associated ecosystem services to humans, while minimizing the conflicts with prevalent socio-economic activities. Goals: (1) Identification and involvement of stakeholders; (2) Identification of conservation goals; (3) compilation of data (ecological and socio-economic); (4) Formulation of conservation targets; (5) Revision of existing target achievement; (6) Selection of new conservation areas.
