Introduction

Marine protected areas (MPAs) are designated regions of the ocean that are legally protected and managed to conserve marine ecosystems and biodiversity. These areas play a crucial role in conserving marine resources and maintaining the health of marine ecosystems. However, the establishment and management of MPAs can have social implications for local communities that rely on marine resources for their livelihoods. This thesis aims to assess the social equity implications of marine protected areas, focusing on how these conservation efforts impact local communities.

Thesis Overview on Marine Protected Area Social Equity Assessment

Marine protected areas (MPAs) have become a crucial tool for conserving marine ecosystems and biodiversity. However, the social equity implications of MPAs have received limited attention in the literature. This thesis aims to fill this gap by assessing the social equity implications of marine protected areas, focusing on how these conservation efforts impact local communities. The study will employ a mixed-methods approach, including surveys, interviews, and case studies, to explore the socio-economic impacts of MPAs on local communities, the role of stakeholders in MPA governance, and the challenges and opportunities for ensuring social equity in marine conservation. The findings from this study will contribute to our understanding of the social dimensions of marine conservation and provide recommendations for enhancing social equity in MPA management.
