"Protection and sound management of coastal and marine areas are acknowledged as important mechanisms for alleviating poverty in the developing tropics. Tanzania has had considerable practical experience with a diversity of models that rely on private sector partnerships, community co-management regimes, and government-led initiatives for marine protection. Blueprint: 2050 Sustaining the Marine Environment in Mainland Tanzania and Zanzibar outlines a vision of what a protected area system could look like in 50 years. It draws on state-of-the-art ecosystem, socio-economic, financial, and institutional background studies to paint a picture that emphasizes community-based adaptive co-management within a flexible system of eight protected area networks, one of which is the Exclusive Economic Zone."--Jacket.
