PROTEA HOTEL, CAPETOWN, RSA.
For our SAIMENA Members
Amabhubesi Conferencing & Training yet again invites you to attend The 2nd Annual Marine & Coastal Management Conference- 2016. At our last conference we discussed the balance between developmental opportunities, coastal management, and the protection of the physical and social environment .This year we will be “unlocking the economic potential of Africa’s Marine and Coastal Cities”
Africa has a number of coastal towns/cities and African countries have coastal cities and grapple with managing the Coastal Environment, Coastal Processes and City Sustainability. It has become paramount to ensure that integrated costal marine management and sustainable development of coastal cities is heightened in light of the new focus on Africa’s Blue economy. The question that comes up now is; how can Africa create sustainable blue economies and how can the cities and towns heighten and match their integrated management processes to the growth.
By attending this conference delegates will get a holistic understanding around key issues on:
- The need for integrated coastal science management and planning
- Sustainable Coastal development and adaptation for the blue economy
- Governments drive with Operation Phakisa
- Emerging requirements challenges and solutions for coastal and marine management
- Leading engineering technologies that will impact development on coastal areas
- How Africa can unlock the ocean economies
- Evolving technologies on coastal and oceanic observation and how these tools are helping in managing coastal zones
- Impacts costal and marine zones have on changing society
The above-mentioned activities and others common to coastal cities, require the development of well-planned and managed urban environments, not only for reasons of efficiency and economics, but also to avoid inflicting environmental degradation that causes the deterioration of quality of life and human health.
Amabhubesi through this 2nd Annual Conference will seek to debunk integrated marine and coastal management through an interdisciplinary discussion from various sectors .The aim of the conference will be to discuss all aspects of coastal & marine management, So join our invited illustrious leaders in this upcoming Conference and gather knowledge which includes DEPT OF ENVIROMENTAL AFFAIRS-RSA, UNWTO, SAIIA, NACOMA, MACKIE ENGINEERING, FUTURE CAPETOWN, CENTRE FOR ENVIRONMENTAL RIGHTS, AQUACULTURE INNOVATIONS, SRK CONSULTING, P.E MARITIME CLUSTER, SEZ, DEPT OF TRADE & INDUSTRY, WWF-NATURE, ELVIS BECK, PLASTIC SA.
