Protected areas in coastal and marine areas are an important approach to conserving marine resources. In this course, students will examine the design, establishment, and evaluation of protected areas. They will learn how MPAs attempt to manage marine ecosystems in the context of both human (over)uses and challenges resulting from pollution and climate change. Students will also study how issues of financing, enforcement, and transboundary resources affect MPA management and the manager’s ability to achieve the goals of the protected area. Lastly, it will consider Other Effective Conservation Measures (OECMs) and how they can contribute to conservation of marine resources.
