Archipelago Planning
This workshop focuses on the role that planning and governance on land have in protecting and remedying the sea. How is the wellbeing of the marine ecosystem taken into account in land-use planning on the shores and catchment area of the Archipelago Sea? How could land and sea planning be integrated? These questions are examined against the broader backdrop of the Ocean Act and by looking at the case of regenerative city planning in Turku.
The workshop features short presentations by guest speakers Essi Kärpijoki (Coordinator of Finland’s Maritime Spatial Plan co-operation) and Laura Pietilä (Project Planner) from the Regional Council of Southwest Finland.
