Dear Marine - Maritime Spatial Planner,
You are cordially invited to join the Maritime Spatial Planning Challenge 2050 'North Sea edition' at the North Sea Commission pre conference, Monday 15 June 2015, Assen, the Netherlands.

Cross border

Cross-border Maritime Spatial Planning is a specific challenge. The planning of the countries involved is often not harmonized and conflicting interests can be played out in different arenas. The European directive for maritime spatial planning demands closer international cooperation in planning and to incorporate land-sea interaction in MSP. One major challenge is how to deal with ecological cumulative effects. The Maritime Spatial Planning Challenge 2050 uses a simplified food web model, which gives players direct feedback of their performances.
