Different contributions to the guidelines were presented by the authors, taking into account geomorphological, hydrographic, legal, economic, biologic and other aspects. This collaboration of the 15 Italian coastal Regions is expected to contribute to the understanding of the importance of the ICZM Protocol in Italy.
