a moving body of water ~ Architectures of Marine Protected Areas around Iceland
This master thesis, within Architectures of Care, draws out and proposes a network of Marine Protected Areas around Iceland that fulfil the global goal of at least 30% conservation by 2030 (Target 3, Kunming-Montréal Global Biodiversity Framework, United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity)....
