Great Distinction for the Innovative Project Costa Nostrum

COSTA NOSTRUM project is one of the 25 innovative entrepreneur ideas of Greece. The Certification Standard for Sustainable Management and Development of the Mediterranean Beaches - Costa Nostrum® (=Our Coast) is an original and innovative “tool” that can objectively guarantee the sustainable development of the Mediterranean beaches, primarily by defending the environment, greatly contributing to the financial development of the region around sustainable Costa Nostrum® beaches and, of course by ensuring social cohesion and prosperity of the citizens of the region.

Every beach has its own unique characteristics, its own needs and demands, but it also has specific potential on the services that provided. In this way the Certification Standard COSTA NOSTRUM evaluates the services and characteristics of the beach and creates a ranking of four categories, while contributing to the improvement of the provided services.

The benefits that arise from the adoption of Costa Nostrum® are varied and cover all three aspects of sustainable development.
