Objectives
• To develop a common MEDSAL participatory framework for the sustainable management of coastal aquifer under salinization risk, through specific tools/methods, actions and protocols.
• To develop and operate a public domain web-based GIS Observatory for the Mediterranean coastal aquifers, towards alerting, monitoring and decision-making.
• To facilitate bridging the gap in legal and managerial issues for coastal aquifer management between different Mediterranean countries (EU and non-EU).

Description of work

This WP is dedicated to the development of the holistic MEDSAL Framework, expressed through specific tools; actions; and protocols to be followed towards the sustainable management of coastal groundwater reserves. The envisaged Framework has a clear inter-domain participatory approach, as it aspires to join the technocratic issues with decision making of stakeholders and public participation. To this aim, both pilot and demonstration actions are included.
