TURKEY: the training Systematic Conservation Planning in Marine Ecosystems (Module 5-Training T4), has been uploaded on the FISH E-Learning Platform.

The training includes a total of 10 videos, seven of which are theoretical information and three of which are practical exercises. The principles that constitute the basis for systematic conservation planning were also presented. The trainees will be able to: 1) establish the most appropriate conservation planning method to apply, taking into consideration the objective(s) that stakeholders have, when they decide to expand the current protected area network, 2) follow all the steps needed to create a new reserve system using systematic conservation planning analysis, 3) run a gap analysis to identify gaps in the existing protected area network, 4) understand main advantages and limitations associated to each method.
