The UK Marine Protected Areas Centre
The UK Marine Protected Areas Centre is a resource for information and news on Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) in the UK (including the Crown Dependencies of the Channel Isles and Isle of Man). The website draws together resources that will help to build capacity amongst UK MPAs practitioners and facilitates sharing information, good practice and learning. Through this site you can:
- Get the latest MPA news (including events, legislation and new research)
- Read and upload examples of best practice and case studies
- Use the fora to discuss topics and issues with other practitioners
- Search the extensive reference library catalogue relating to MPA research and recent reports
- Find useful presentations and images to download
- Use the interactive map to guide you to site based information on MPAs, including their designations, habitats, species and activities.
- Link to existing websites of individual European Marine Sites, other MPAs and to partner websites.
If you would like to be involved or require further information then please contact us at info@ukmpas.org.uk.
