CZC 2008: Managing our Oceans and Coasts for a Sustainable
and Prosperous Future
CZC 2008 will mark thirty years since the first Canadian
national conference on coastal management (the Shore Management
Symposium) in Victoria in 1978, and it is an opportune time
to assess how far we have come towards managing our oceans
and coasts and where we are going in the future. This conference
will look at the advances and the setbacks in our understanding
and management of coastal and ocean systems, both in Canada
and globally, and will establish recommendations and actions
for the immediate future and the next thirty years.
Sponsorship Information
The 2008 CZC Conference will be made possible by the generous
support of co-sponsors and the registration fees paid by attendees.
Funding from co-sponsors is essential to ensure a high-quality

coastal zones in an integrated manner.
