Big Bang –or small 100 things better ? • Recommendations from the coastal handbook: • Recognition of the problem • Encourage government to focus on coast • Maintain Sea Change • Share information to improve impact
Changing environment • A reforming government, with a wide agenda • End of RDAs, and “local” strategies by national government • CCA resources • CCF, final years of EU programmes, RGF
Major priorities (?) • Business, employment, and skills • Domestic tourism • Renewables • Digital connectivity • Quality of life/realm • Coastal erosion
CCA 2012 onwards... • Changing environment suggests... • Need to share information on implementing good ideas (Sea Change +) • Need to demonstrate that CCA members deliver better outputs for our communities • Maintain momentum of CCF • Big Lottery Fund –coastal knowledge and decisions
Considerations • How well do you think the coastal case is made ? • What resource can you offer to CCA ? • What topics are most important for you to exchange information about ?
