Mediterranean Biodiversity Protection tools catalogue in Arabic
In the framework of the Project PANACeA, the MED Biodiversity Protection Community built the present Catalogue of tools for biodiversity protection in Mediterranean MPAs, covering different needs and requirements for ecosystem-based management. This Catalogue is an update and extension of a previous report developed in the context of PANACeA, which included a preliminary version of some of the tools for ecosystem-based management in the Mediterranean, being developed by the Biodiversity Protection Community projects during the year 2018.
The tools included in this version of the Catalogue updated in 2022 are classified into several types: monitoring tools; management tools; geospatial tools; financial tools and other tools.
The tools catalogue is available in Arabic, English, French and Spanish.

Effective conservation of coastal habitats across the Mediterranean
A previous study within the ENSERES project showed that whereas PAs proved to be an effective tool to reduce land development along Mediterranean coastal areas, the ICZM Protocol had had no effect in doing so. This study aims to delve into those results by ascertaining the views of a range of relevant national and regional stakeholders on the
conservation status of Mediterranean coastal areas and the factors that most and least contribute to it.

The study, entitled "Development of a strategy and action plan for the sustainable management of fisheries in and around the Kneiss Islands nature reserve and SPAMI area in Tunisia", is part of the ENSERES (ENhancing Socio-Ecological RESilience in Mediterranean coastal areas) project.
This study involves the main players in the fisheries sector, namely the administration, fishermen's unions, civil society and self-employed fishermen. By adopting a participatory approach to drawing up the strategy, the aim is to involve all the stakeholders in the decision-making process, thereby ensuring the continuity of actions beyond the end of the project.
Synthesis of the results and lessons learnt of the ENSERES transfer activities
This report aims to document best practices and lessons learned from the implemented activities in the pilot territories, providing recommendations for further implementation and replication in other territories.
The transferring and up-scaling activities covered by the present report include compiling transferable tools into a multilingual toolkit, conducting training sessions on selected tools, implementing mentoring programmes in the pilot sites using appropriate tools, executing pilot actions by providing subgrants to civil society organizations and social and solidarity economy organizations, and improving marine protected areas management through the implementation of the twinning programme among the Specially Protected Areas of Mediterranean Importance.
