Decision Making Processes

In 2008, the Council of the European Union adopted the “Protocol on Integrated Coastal Zone Management” (ICZM Protocol), then ratified by Decision No. 2010/631/EU. The ICZM Protocol defines integrated coastal zone management as a dynamic and flexible process that accounts for the relations between coastal ecosystems and landscape as well as the activities and the uses that characterize coastal areas. Integrated management of coastal zones is still a critical process in terms of translating theory into practice. In this theoretical framework, strategic environmental assessment (SEA) helps to improve decision-making processes related to coastal spatial planning by integrating development goals and sustainability criteria. This study proposes a methodological approach concerning ICZM-based decision-making processes at the local level. The methodology is implemented in relation to three case studies concerning three towns located in southwest Sardinia. The results show a general consistency between the analyzed plans in terms of objectives and themes. Three specific issues are particularly relevant in terms of integration of economic and social objectives and sustainability goals, that is, relations between beach services and coastal ecosystems, protection of coastal ecosystems, and accessibility to the coastal zones.

Zone Development

The study was conducted in Xuan Thuy National Park to provide a comparative assessment of different farming systems under the context of the coastal zone development of Vietnam. Based on a sample of 234 farmers in this area, SCP (Structure–Conduct–Performance) analysis revealed three farming systems: integrated aquaculture–mangrove (IAM), intensive shrimp (ISH), and rice-based (RB) farming. The evaluation of farm performance among the systems indicated that ISH incurred the highest values of variable cost and sustainable family income. Meanwhile, IAM obtained the lowest production cost due to the availability of allocated natural resources. The imbalance of applying synthesized fertilizers and an overdependence on nitro-based fertilizers were reported in the case of RB systems. In comparison with the other coastal areas of Vietnam, these farming systems achieved a lower level of production efficiency. It is urgent for policy makers to take action to promote sustainable farming practices in accordance with the stringent enforcement of environmental standards to reduce potential impacts and strengthen the coexistence of systems. Additionally, the purpose of securing rural livelihood under coastal development is aligned with the recommended solutions for economic improvement in this study.

This study aims to determine the Coastal Zone Development Strategy as a Tourism Object in Mamuju Regency. This type of research is qualitative research using the exploratory method. In the selection of research, informants were carried out deliberately (purposive sampling) with as many as 7 informants. Data analysis with an interactive model consists of three stages of data reduction, data presentation, drawing conclusions. The results showed that the policy in developing the coastal area as a tourist destination in the Mamuju Regency area by increasing the promotion of regional tourism in Mamuju Regency, developing environmentally-based productive tourism, growing the active role of the community to participate in building the tourism sector, and increasing the role of local government, Private sector and society in tourism development in Mamuju regency. Factors that influence the development of tourism, namely the supporting factors in the management of tourist objects, namely the potential of the area and the active role of the community so that they can develop and build a tourist attraction for Tapandullu Beach that is better and can attract the attention of tourists. While the inhibiting factors in Tapandullu Beach Tourism Governance are inadequate facilities and infrastructure and limited budget so that it hinders the process of developing the Tapandullu Beach tourism object. The managerial strategy for developing tourist beach tourism is realized in the form of strengthening the mass tourist market segment and developing the tourism market segment to optimize the development of coastal tourism destinations.
