  1. Coastal conflictsbetween users Coastal Conflicts Coasts Key Idea 2.7 Lesson 1 of 1

  2. Lesson Objectives • Outline a range of conflicts between different users of the coast. • Explore coastal conflicts in St Lucia (Coral Reef) The Mediterranean coast and Lyne Bay, Southern England.

  3. Human needs vs. Ecosystem wellbeing Should ecosystems be protected and conserved? Or should people be encouraged to make the fullest use of their resources and opportunities, that is exploit them? In short the overriding coastal conflict is between conservation and development.

  4. Who are the Stakeholders? Vietnam's coastal mangrove forests are suffering from climate change. What's more, intensive rice production and enormous shrimp farms are also damaging coastal protection. Better management of mangrove forests could help. In the southern Mekong Delta, experts from German development agency GTZ are creating protected coastal zones. They are replanting mangrove forests, together with the local population. And they are teaching the locals about how to fight climate change as well.

  5. Conflict Matrix • Read the case study of Coral Management in St Lucia on page 49-50. • Complete a conflict matrix using the information you have read.

  6. Extension/Homework • Using examples from the Southampton Water case study (page 54) to illustrate the conflict between conservation and development.
