Presentation<\/p>

The fight against the erosion of biodiversity, in the context of the sixth mass extinction, has helped to shape international and national strategies for the protection and management of coastal and maritime ecosystems. Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) are one of the key elements of the resulting public policies, and their number has increased considerably in recent decades. According to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) defined by the United Nations, States must effectively protect at least 10% of their marine and coastal areas, and this target should rise to 30% after the next 'COP' of the Convention on Biological Diversity, to be held this summer in China.<\/p>

However, achieving the quantified objectives for combating biodiversity loss depends on their effectiveness, understood as the ability to carry out conservation actions that are genuinely beneficial for the restoration or maintenance of ecosystems and that are sustainable over time. Too many marine protected areas are considered to be \"paper\" MPAs, with no effective management framework. Ecological, biological, legal, socio-economic, cultural and political aspects all need to be taken into account when managing MPAs.<\/p>

The aim of this summer school is to provide interdisciplinary knowledge on MPAs and the challenges of managing them, using a case study: the Parc national des Calanques, at the interface between land and sea and town and nature. The Parc national des Calanques, established in 2012, is a world-renowned marine protected area covering a land and sea area of more than 141,200 hectares (including 30% in enhanced protection zones corresponding to the 'hearts of the national park'). The park is characterised by spectacular landscapes inherited from its geological history and shaped by past human activities. It is home to a diversity of marine ecosystems, a rich cultural and intangible heritage, and a wide range of professional and leisure activities. Adjacent to one of France's largest metropolises, the area is also subject to anthropogenic pressures and evolving environmental risks.<\/p>

The Calanques National Park will be the entry point for discussing the current challenges facing MPAs, the vulnerability of ecosystems, the management of fisheries resources, marine pollution, coastal erosion, climate change and social acceptance, as well as the technical, political and legislative tools and mechanisms available at national, regional and international level. These issues will be addressed during field trips, lectures and conferences by researchers and teacher-researchers from Aix Marseille University, socio-economic players from the metropolitan area and international experts specialising in the above-mentioned fields.<\/p>

The courses and lectures will enable students (Masters and PhD students) and those involved in biodiversity conservation (managers of natural areas) to understand the long-term and day-to-day issues involved in managing an MPA, by considering several time scales: geological, ecological, historical, legal and political time, in a socio-ecosystemic approach. Lectures and presentations in the classroom and in the field will also enable students to navigate between scalar levels: from the habitat of a micro-organism to the landscape of the Mediterranean, to the flows and movements of the planet, via the more territorial and local dynamics that influence current and future conservation measures.<\/p>

The programme of this summer school is designed to provide knowledge on a particular focus each day through lectures and discussions led by scientists from different disciplines and institutional and socio-economic speakers. Two field trips are planned, including one at sea on the first day, which will enable students to get to know each other better and put the challenges of managing a marine area into context.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Examinations<\/p>

As this summer school is accredited with 3 ECTS, an assessment process is built into the programme. Participants will be asked to complete an MCQ at the end of each day. The results of the exams will be announced on the last day of the summer school.<\/p>

Registration procedure<\/p>

Registration for the summer school takes place in 2 phases.<\/p>

Phase 1: Pre-registration (deadline 15 May 2022)
To pre-register, you must complete and send the registration form. Following selection by the panel, successful applicants will be informed by 20 May at the latest and invited to complete phase 2 of the faculty application process.

Phase 2: Registration with the Faculty
Enrolment at the Faculty is compulsory and will enable you to obtain 3 ECTS at the end of the summer school.
Phase 2 registration for students requires a letter of recommendation from the head of the Masters programme or the thesis supervisor. To complete registration for phase 2, professionals must pay the registration fee.<\/p>

Registration fees
\u00a0<\/p>

The summer school is :<\/p>

free for AMU and CIVIS students
200 for professionals<\/p>

The registration fee for professionals covers the cost of the boat trip and transport to the National Park, as well as materials for the practical courses. Packed lunches will be provided for the 2 excursions.<\/p>

Payment instructions will be provided in phase 2 of the registration process by e-mail once your selection has been confirmed.<\/p>

Practical information
\u00a0<\/p>

Where does the summer school take place?<\/p>

The summer school will be held at the OCEANOMED building on the Luminy campus.<\/p>

Field trips<\/p>

The summer school uses the Parc national des Calanques as a case study in interdisciplinary approaches and the challenges of managing marine protected areas. Two excursions are therefore being organised.
The first day of the summer school includes a boat trip.
The fifth day of the summer school includes a visit to one of the most popular calanques.<\/p>

What to bring<\/p>

Comfortable walking shoes, a hat and sun protection for excursions are recommended.<\/p>
