Abstract
The urgency of addressing coastal issues is now considerably greater than it was a decade ago. Moreover, the Oceans Day at COP21 (Paris, 4 December 2015) recognized ‘the central role of the oceans in regulating climate, and the fact that the ocean will not be able to perform these functions in the future if global warming continues unabated’. Responsible management of any marine area should integrate integrated coastal zone management (ICZM), or more generally speaking integrated coastal management (ICM) and the ecosystem approach as well as applying the same principles from the coast to the offshore waters. By working together in a strategic way, ICM and biodiversity conservation practitioners can mutually support efforts to promote conservation of coastal resources and their habitats and the well-being of the people who depend upon them. This article advocates the possibility and urgency of clearly addressing in a coordinated way any coastal and marine managed area, including marine protected areas (MPAs), within the context of an overall integrated coastal and ocean management (ICOM) policy, with articulated plans developed at local, sub-national, national, and regional level to fulfil the grand objective of the Convention of Biodiversity, Aichi Target 11.

By 2020, at least 17% of terrestrial and inland water areas, and 10% of coastal and marine areas, especially areas of particular importance for biodiversity and ecosystem services are conserved through effectively and equitably managed, ecologically representative and well-connected systems of protected areas and other effective area-based conservation measures, and integrated into the wider landscapes and seascapes.
