On July 18, the first of a series of online briefings for Black Sea stakeholders was presented by ClimAzul, in the scope of the project’s stakeholder engagement programme. The goal was to share the project’s activities and deliverables and get initial feedback on how MPA Europe deliverables can help support current regional/national activities for climate-smart, coherent, and effective marine protected areas within maritime spatial planning in the Black Sea. Similar briefings have also been conducted over the past month for national and regional stakeholders for each of Europe’s sea basins.
