Its purpose is to unify a wide range of stakeholders, including authorities, scientists, international environmental organizations, professionals, yacht operators, and marinas from Mediterranean countries. The MPN already has more than 60 members from 11 countries and has been supported by renowned organizations such as IUCN, WWF, MedPan, and SPA\/RAC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The unified concern of these actors is focused on the protection and conservation of <em>Posidonia oceanica<\/em>. This essential marine species is threatened by various pressures, such as pollution, anchoring, and trawl fishing, varying in intensity and nature in each Mediterranean region. In response, the MPN is dedicated to intensifying capacity development initiatives in each country, establishing effective strategies to improve the protection of <em>Posidonia oceanica<\/em> and halt its progressive degradation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>MPN Objectives:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li style=\"font-size:18px\">Deepen knowledge about <em>Posidonia oceanica<\/em>, its pressures and impacts, and establish robust mechanisms for its monitoring and evaluation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-size:18px\">Develop and strengthen regulations to ensure consistent and uniform standards throughout the Mediterranean region.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-size:18px\">Promote the implementation and adoption of low-impact buoy field services and\/or provide sustainable alternatives to boat users.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-size:18px\">Raise awareness at the local, national, and international levels about the crucial importance of Posidonia oceanica in biodiversity and its role in mitigating climate change.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Balearic Government has been instrumental in amplifying the MPN&#8217;s mission. It has integrated the experience of the <em>Posidonia operation<\/em> and the Posidonia Surveillance Service, along with conservation initiatives, enriching the network&#8217;s mission. Furthermore, it has actively contributed to the development of the MPN Roadmap, a strategic plan that guides efforts to protect <em>Posidonia oceanica<\/em> throughout the Mediterranean.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"background-color:#eee5d3;padding-left:3%;padding-right:3%;padding-bottom:3%;padding-top:3%\" class=\"wp-block-genesis-blocks-gb-container container-all gb-block-container\"><div class=\"gb-container-inside\"><div class=\"gb-container-content\" style=\"max-width:1600px\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-essential-blocks-advanced-video\"><div class=\"eb-parent-wrapper eb-parent-eb-advanced-video-cb01k7c \"><div class=\"eb-advanced-video-wrapper eb-advanced-video-cb01k7c none\" data-id=\"eb-advanced-video-cb01k7c\"><div class=\"eb-player-wrapper eb-advanced-video-cb01k7c\"><div class=\"eb-player-option none right\" data-id=\"eb-advanced-video-cb01k7c\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=sIJsBqHLCMk\" data-option=\"none\" data-controls=\"true\" data-loop=\"false\" data-muted=\"false\" data-playing=\"false\" data-overlay=\"true\" data-light=\"https:\/\/atlasposidonia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Captura-de-pantalla-2023-06-13-123608.png\" data-customplayicontype=\"image\" data-customplayiconlib=\"fas fa-play-circle\" data-customplayicon=\"true\" data-playicon=\"https:\/\/atlasposidonia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/play.webp\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"background-color:#000000;padding-left:4%;padding-right:4%;padding-bottom:6%;padding-top:4%\" class=\"wp-block-genesis-blocks-gb-container gb-block-container\"><div class=\"gb-container-inside\"><div class=\"gb-container-image-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"gb-container-image has-background-dim-70 has-background-dim\" src=\"https:\/\/atlasposidonia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/fondo-posidonia.webp\" alt=\"Fondo posidonia\"\/><\/div><div class=\"gb-container-content\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-genesis-blocks-gb-columns advanced-columns-image-with-card gb-layout-columns-2 gb-2-col-wideleft\"><div class=\"gb-layout-column-wrap gb-block-layout-column-gap-2 gb-is-responsive-column\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-genesis-blocks-gb-column gb-block-layout-column\"><div class=\"gb-block-layout-column-inner\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-essential-blocks-advanced-video\"><div class=\"eb-parent-wrapper eb-parent-eb-advanced-video-4jw8xcn \"><div class=\"eb-advanced-video-wrapper eb-advanced-video-4jw8xcn none\" data-id=\"eb-advanced-video-4jw8xcn\"><div class=\"eb-player-wrapper eb-advanced-video-4jw8xcn\"><div class=\"eb-player-option none right\" data-id=\"eb-advanced-video-4jw8xcn\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=mDUDoYnL68Y\" data-option=\"none\" data-controls=\"false\" data-loop=\"false\" data-muted=\"true\" data-playing=\"true\" data-overlay=\"false\" data-light=\"https:\/\/atlasposidonia.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/essential-blocks\/assets\/images\/adv-video-placeholder.png\" data-customplayicontype=\"image\" data-customplayiconlib=\"fas fa-play-circle\" data-customplayicon=\"true\" data-playicon=\"https:\/\/atlasposidonia.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/essential-blocks\/assets\/images\/adv-video-playicon.svg\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-genesis-blocks-gb-column gb-block-layout-column\"><div class=\"gb-block-layout-column-inner gb-has-custom-background-color\" style=\"padding:30px;background-color:#eee5d3\"><style>@media only screen and (max-width: 1200px) {.gb-6a6a6a8812c27{font-size: 2.8em!important;}}@media only screen and (max-width: 600px) {.gb-6a6a6a8812c27{font-size: 2.3em!important;}}<\/style>\n<h2 class=\"gb-6a6a6a8812c27 wp-block-heading line-bottom-left has-text-color\" style=\"color:#2c8a3a;font-size:3.1em\">International entities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"pt-40 wp-block-paragraph\">To establish relationships with other groups and organizations outside the usual work group, it is key to establish a network of collaborators and contacts. Examples like the Mediterranean Posidonia Network establish very important relationships that maximize conservation and protection efforts for Posidonia, under a common objective. The larger the network and the accessibility of data by the administration, the better the management of the prairie ecosystem can be. Joining forces, exchanging data and experiences is extremely valuable for achieving objectives and success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons mt-40 is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-fe48e5de wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-font-size is-style-outline has-small-font-size is-style-outline--1\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color wp-element-button\" href=\"mailto:medposidonianetwork@gmail.com\" style=\"border-radius:100px;color:#2c8a3a\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">EMAIL<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-font-size is-style-outline has-small-font-size is-style-outline--2\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/medposidonianetwork.com\/\" style=\"color:#2c8a3a\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">WEB<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_eb_attr":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1369","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"featured_image_src":null,"featured_image_src_square":null,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/atlasposidonia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1369","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/atlasposidonia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/atlasposidonia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atlasposidonia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/atlasposidonia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1369"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/atlasposidonia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1369\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1853,"href":"https:\/\/atlasposidonia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1369\/revisions\/1853"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/atlasposidonia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1369"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
