ICZM-SPICOSA Forum 2010

The SPICOSA project has sponsored the LITTORAL 2010 Conference, which took place in London, 21st  to 23rd  September and organised its annual forum during this event. The 3rd edition of the ICZM-SPICOSA Forum: Prospects for Systems Science Assessments in support of ICZM was a great opportunity to meet and exchange views not only with the partners but also with policy makers, coastal managers, academic & research community, related projects from all Europe and beyond. In this forum the SPICOSA team demonstrated the System Approach Framework (SAF) approach developed and tested under the Project and illustrated its application using  examples from a selection of the 18 Study Site Applications (SSA). Moreover, a SPICOSA Permanent Poster Exhibition during the three days of conference was presented the SAF experiment carried out in the SSAs, from the issue to the results and outpus.
