Abstract

Human activities such as massive tourism, unsustainable fishing; and unplanned development have been impacted the coastal zone and generated devastation of its terrestrial and maritime ecosystems. Concerned by the situation, the scientific community has developed the integrated coastal zone management approach in order to bring a possible solution to all these problems. The international legal framework has been incorporated this integrated coastal management approach and has been promoted worldwide guidelines in order to implement it. However, its implementation by the countries hasn’t been effective due to several reasons. Therefore, the aim of this Master Thesis is to explain what is the integrated coastal management approach, to what extend this approach has been incorporated first in the international legal framework, and then in national laws and policies; and finally to find out if there has been an effective implementation of it.
