  1. Introduction to the SPICOSA project and professional training workshop aims SPICOSA = Science and Policy Integration for Coastal Systems Assessment

  2. Structure: Facts and figures on SPICOSA The SPICOSA approach Key concepts of SPICOSA Role and aim of this workshop.

  3. Facts and figures: FP6 – integrated project (~€14m) 54 partners from EU – mostly academic 13 Work Packages WP13 – professional training 18 study sites (SSA’s) Cork WP7.8

  4. The SPICOSA approach: Views the coast as a system..well many systems Popperian domains: physical / mind / information Domains are incommensurable but interfaceable Systems Approach is the selected methdology to bring domains together ...but not mechnical – evolving clockwork.

  5. The SPICOSA approach: ?

  6. 8 Key concepts of SPICOSA approach: Multiple domains – « worlds » Hard and soft systems Models (conceptual, mathematical & numerical) Hard and soft thinking.

  7. 8 Key concepts of SPICOSA approach: Cause and effect: DPSIR Scale (size + resolution) Multiple perceptions Support decision making

  8. Role and aim of this workshop: SPICOSA’s role is to support « decision making processes aiming at improving the sustainability of Coastal Systems.. » We don’t « do » management We don’t « advise » on management We do provide knowldge to help managers .....BUT.....

  9. Role and aim of this workshop: ...SPICOSA is an academic framework ....SPICOSA is an uproven approach .....SPICOSA has the opportunity to be tested out at SSA’s (including Cork).

  10. Role and aim of this workshop: Thus, we wish to « ground truth » the project in management reality This involves interacting with « real » people (stakeholders)....like you! We hope you will gain insights into approaches and ways to view the coastal system.

  11. Role and aim of this workshop: Thus, the aim of this workshop is « to develop awareness in Cork stakeholders of the SPICOSA approach and to jointly ground-truth some key aspects of the Cork site approach».

  12. Role and aim of this workshop: The workshop is designed to promote interaction, free-thinking & innovation Differences of views are supported! We will facilitate but the result is in your hands.
