The 2
ndIberoamerican Congress on
The 2nd Iberoamerican Congress on Integrated Coastal Zone Management: Governance for ecosystem services in coasts and oceans (2nd ICZM Iberoamerica) will take place in the city of Florianopolis, Brazil from the 3rd to 6st of May, 2016.
This event is organized and led by the Iberoamerican Network for Integrated Coastal Man-agement (Red IBERMAR), which is composed of 15 countries. The 2nd ICZM Iberoamerica will be organized in conjunction with the Brazilian Federal Universitis of Santa Catarina, Rio Grande do Sul and Rio Grande; the University of Cadiz- Spain, and CEI-MAR - Campus of International Excellence for Sea Studies.
The 2nd ICZM Iberoamerica Congress will follow the success of the last Congress, held in Cádiz, Spain in 2012. In Cádiz we developed the Cádiz Declaration, which urged iberoamer-ican coutries to implement effective action on managing the coastal and marine zones. At Florianópolis we will work on a platform for dissemination, discussion, knowledge exchange, training and capacity building, contributing to the achievement of global and regional commitments related to the integrated and sustainable management of coastal and ma-rine areas, their ecosystem services and human well-being.
Please join us, participate in the 2nd Iberoamerican Congress on Integrated Coastal Zone Management and help us to find inspiration and solutions for a better management of our coasts and oceans.

REGISTRATION
GENERAL INFORMATION AND OBJECTIVES:
The 2nd Iberoamerican Congress on Integrated Coastal Zone Management emphasizes the “Governance for ecosystem services in coasts and oceans”and will be held in Florianó-polis, SC, Brazil, from the 3rd to the 6th of May 2016. The 2nd ICZM Iberoamerica Congress intends to give continuity to the goals set in the 1st ICZM Iberoamerica Congress held in Cádiz, 2012, working on the development of a regional framework for the exchange of experiences and knowledge that will improve the governance for the coastal sustainability in Iberoamerica.
The focus of this second edition, the ecosystem based management (EBM), is an approach that links the environmental health to the human well-being, as the environment provides valuable natural services, or “Ecosystem Services” to human communities. These services depend on the complexity of ecosystems, the connections among them, the link between land, fresh and salt water, and their integration with the human beings. The application of EBM in marine environments is new, happening mostly as an answer to the deteriorating state of its ecosystems. This necessity overlaps with the “Aichi Biodiversity Targets”, defined in the Strategic Plan for Biodiversity for the period from 2011 to 2020.
The Florianopolis Declaration, one of the main objectives of the event, will be the result of collaboration between assistants and members of the Scientific Committee, and will achie-ve a “framework for the goachie-vernance of coastal and marine ecosystem services”, with the ambition to serve as reference for decision-makers and the scientific community.
Given the Ibero-American scope of this Congress, the official languages will be Spanish and Portuguese. Nevertheless, communications (oral and posters) will be accepted in English.
