Aysén Public Services Contribute to National Coastal Zoning Guide Development
The Ministry of the Environment (MMA) announced on August 20, 2025, that public services from the Aysén region have actively participated in a workshop focused on the elaboration of a national guide for regional coastal zonification. This collaborative effort underscores a significant step towards establishing comprehensive and well-informed coastal management strategies across Chile.
The workshop, detailed in a recent publication by the MMA, brought together representatives from various public entities within the Aysén region. Their collective expertise and on-the-ground experiences are proving invaluable in shaping a practical and effective guide that will ultimately serve as a framework for coastal zonification throughout the country.
Coastal zonification is a critical process for sustainable development. It involves dividing coastal areas into different zones based on their ecological, economic, social, and cultural characteristics, each with specific management objectives and regulations. This approach aims to balance conservation efforts with economic activities, ensuring the long-term health and productivity of our valuable coastlines.
The participation of Aysén’s public services is particularly noteworthy. The region boasts a unique and diverse coastline, characterized by fjords, channels, islands, and extensive marine ecosystems. The challenges and opportunities presented by these complex environments provide a rich source of lessons learned and best practices that are essential for the development of a robust national guide.
Through this workshop, participants were able to share their experiences, identify key considerations, and contribute to the technical and methodological aspects of the guide. This collaborative approach ensures that the final document is not only scientifically sound but also practical and adaptable to the diverse realities of Chile’s extensive coastline.
The Ministry of the Environment, through this initiative, is demonstrating its commitment to fostering inter-institutional cooperation and leveraging regional knowledge for national policy development. The resulting guide is expected to provide clear orientation for regional governments and stakeholders in their efforts to implement effective and sustainable coastal zonification plans, contributing to the preservation of marine biodiversity and the responsible use of coastal resources for future generations.
