"The Coastal Practice Network represents a contribution to the establishment of a European coastal practitioners network. The key aim is to bridge the gap between planners, managers and the research community throughout Europe.

The network is to develop and exchange information on best practice in the coastal zone on the issues of sustainable tourism, coastal erosion and beach management. The network serves to equalise the differences in regional coastal development by bringing together Priority 1 and Priority 2 partners in a relationship embracing research, advisory and practitioner organisations.
