The National Maritime Space Management Plan (POEM) covers the entire maritime space of Mozambique and aims to: 1. Establish maritime spatial planning, respecting the principles of integrated management and sustainable development. 2. Promote the sustainable, rational and efficient economic exploitation of the sea and marine resources and ecosystem services, ensuring the compatibility and sustainability of the different uses and activities developed therein, taking into account the inter and intragenerational responsibility in the use of the national maritime space and aimed at job creation. 3. Ensure the preservation, protection and recovery of natural values, biodiversity and coastal and marine ecosystems and the maintenance of the good environmental status of the marine environment, as well as the prevention of risks and the minimization of the effects resulting from natural disasters and climate change or of human action. 4.

Ensure the quality of the information available on the national maritime space. The document content of the POEM, in accordance with the Regulation Establishing the Legal Regime for the Use of the National Maritime Space (RJUEM) will be as follows: Geospatial representation of the order that establishes the spatial and temporal distribution of values, uses and existing and potential activities. Execution rules associated with geospatial representation that identify public utility restrictions, safeguard and protection regimes for natural and cultural resources and good practices to be observed in the use and management of the national maritime space.
