OBS

The Euro-Mediterranean Centre on Insular Coastal Dynamics - (ICoD) forms part of a network of specialised Centres pertaining to the Open Partial Agreement of the Council of Europe on Major Natural and Technological Hazards. While the majority of the specialised Centres belonging to the OPA specialise in dealing with geomorphological disasters, those based in Malta and Monaco address marine-related issues. ICoD was established in 1988 within the framework of the "Euro-Mediterranean Centre on Marine Contamination Hazards" where it initially addressed marine degradation in general; it has subsequently re-oriented its objectives and activities towards a greater focus on the interactive processes which occur at the coastal zone and in particular, of insular areas.
