Mapping for the Future: Interactive Design of MPA Corridors

Join us for our interactive workshop aiming to bring together a wide spectrum of UN Ocean Conference 2025 attendees by facilitating knowledge exchange and promote critical thinking thorugh a clues-type of game 🧩

🛳️ Aboard METEOR: From science to ocean action

🐋 Hosted by: The MPA Community Network facilitated by SUBMARINER Network for Blue Growth EEIG

📅 Date and Time: 11 June 2025, 13.00 – 15.00 CET

📍 Location: Port Lympia, at Quai Île de Beauté, Nice, France

The event will commence with a short introductory session about the alignment with the UN Ocean Conference 2025 objectives and introducing the MPA Community Network with its participating EU-funded projects.

The fun game will focus on designing Marine Protected Area corridors to balance ecological connectivity, socio-economic benefits, and industry needs. Using the mockup of tools that are being developed in different EU projects including BioProtect, Blue Connect, Blue4All, MSP4BIO, PHAROS, Protect Baltic and Marine Plan, you will work with maps, data layers, and connectivity metrics to collaboratively design MPA corridors.

The session will aim to explore trade-offs, EU Mission Ocean objectives, and decision-making challenges, generating actionable insights for MPA planning.
