Alongside the CoPraNet project, EUCC is trying to recruit so-called Associate Members to the Network. This will enable those members to take advantage of the findings of the CoPraNet partnership and broaden the stakeholder base of the overall network. The intent is also to lay the foundation for a continuation of the project work after the project funding has formally ended. Such members will be encouraged to organise workshops on ICZM issues not considered in the CoPraNet project.
