Ports are strategic hubs for marine spatial planning (MSP) due to the variety of stakeholders who rely on port infrastructure. Spatial planning can be undertaken from a national and multisectoral perspective such as MSP, to local project development (e.g. a fishing port). There is a need to improve the alignment of sectoral planning with MSP.

This joint IOC-UNESCO and FAO publication is the result of a series of regional workshops in Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean, and East Asia and the Pacific, which were organized in the context of the “Joint Roadmap to accelerate Maritime/Marine Spatial Planning processes worldwide (MSProadmap)” and the “Blue Ports Initiative”.
