The ICZM draft plan of Lääne-Viru case was published on 27th March 2018 on the webpage of Estonian Life Science University. This ICZM plan draft is based on thematic analysis, field-work, international knowledge exchange, consultations with some interest groups and discussions with management group members of the Lääne-Viru case.
Public assessment
The information about the ICZM draft and public participation meetings are also visible on the webpages of Haljala municipality and of Viru-Nigula municipality.
There are two public discussion meetings of the ICZM draft plan in Lääne-Viru coastal area: in Karepa community house on 17th April 2018 at 16.00 and in Võsu beach-club on 30th April 2018 at 16.00. The infor
mation about these events is presented on several posters in public spaces of the coastal area, and circulated through the e-mail contacts. The local newspaper of Viru-Nigula Teataja published an article about the ICZM process and the public discussion event as well.
Additionally, the project team currently prepares the web-based participatory GIS tool, which would generate flexible ways to give feedback to the ICZM draft plan. These two public events in Karepa and in Võsu would indicate if there is need to organise more meetings with interest groups. The presented public feedback would be carefully proceeded, discussed in the management group of the Lääne-Viru case and more integrated into the draft of ICZM plan in September 2018. The final ICZM plan of Lääne-Viru will be published after the reflections based on the public feedback in mid-November 2018.
