Las brechas a las que se enfrentan las mujeres para ejercer plenamente sus derechos y vivir una vida libre de violencia son obstáculos para alcanzar la dignidad, la seguridad y el bienestar en las comunidades. Cerrar estas brechas es una condición necesaria para lograr el desarrollo y el uso sostenible de los recursos. Este Manual ha sido diseñado con el propósito de facilitar procesos locales de capacitación que conduzcan a identificar las manifestaciones de la violencia de género, reflexionar sobre sus impactos y adoptar compromisos de cambio a nivel personal, familiar y organizacional en las zonas marino-costeras (especialmente entornos de pesca artesanal).

More than 70% of the earth is covered by oceans and major seas and there are more than 1.6 million kilometres of coastline. Yet our marine world is under threat: the most insidious is the one posed by marine invasive species. This booklet does not present new or primary information, but rather a synthesis of current issues and trends, including several examples of some of the worst marine invasive species, their spread and impact. It is targeted at the general public to highlight an important but often overlooked issue, and to serve as a source of information and inspiration.

Marine invasive species can have a disastrous impact on biodiversity, ecosystems, fisheries, human health, tourism and coastal development, and they can be extremely difficult and costly to control. This manual is about the most common invasive alien species (IAS) in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea, mostly originating from the Red Sea, creating socioeconomic and ecological impacts on various levels. The manual highlights the current situation of IAS in the Eastern Mediterranean, and mainly focuses on the management measures of IAS, existing legislations and action plans, mitigation measures and implementation of the controlling procedures with different aspects and practices among various disciplines and across regions. The manual is designed for a varied audience from Marine Protected Area (MPA) managers to local authorities, from scientists to non-governmental or-ganisations that are involved in the in the management of IAS.
