Creating an Integrated Coastal Zone Policy

Set out a process for creating an integrated coastal zone policy to solve a specific coastal or ocean risk or issue of your choice for a Pacific Island Country of your choice.

What is an Integrated Coastal Zone Management or Ocean Policy in the context of the blue economy? Why is it important for a nation to have one? Explain how you would start a process to create an integrated coastal policy for the Country you have chosen as a solution for the risk you have chosen. Which groups are important to discuss with, how would you do it, and what process would you use? How long would it take, and what additional resources or experts would you use? Would you adopt a policy from somewhere else? If not, why not?
