“…The Indicator-based Sustainability Assessment Tool (InSAT) adapts the approach of the SUSTAIN partnership [36] and builds upon lessons learnt from previous applications [30][31][32]. An identified weakness was that some of the indicators were incomprehensible to the extent that they were complicating the application process.…”

“…The InSAT, the description of the tool and written explanation of the application procedure are provided to evaluators before the assessment. An indicator set application process is based on a two-step methodology [30][31][32]36]. The application process starts with data collection (Figure 1, Step 4).…”

“…The primary version of the indicator system for coastal sustainable development was initially applied by Schernewski et al in 2017 [31] as an outcome of the SUSTAIN project. Later on, the QualityCoast indicators were submerged into the SUSTAIN spreadsheet-based assessment method [32], but the results were not easily reproducible, and it was difficult to compare them with those related to other destinations as well as with indicators with too strong a focus on tourism [32]. As a consequence, tailor-made indicators were chosen to cover three categories of sustainability (environmental quality, economics, and social well-being), and process indicators were included to measure the success of ICZM [21].…”

“…Many sets of indicators have been developed in the last two decades and applied for sustainability assessment worldwide and in Europe [24][25][26][27][28][29]. Moreover, numerous coastal indicator sets have been developed and used for different purposes [30][31][32][33]. Indicators are designed to measure progress, to raise awareness, and to support decision-making, while being easy to communicate and to understand [31].…”

The applied Indicator-based Sustainability Assessment Tool (InSAT) serves as a user-friendly computer-aided tool to support coastal and marine management. Focus is on sustainable coastal development, including environmental, social, and economic aspects. We apply the InSAT to assess the changes in sustainability before, during, and after the implementation of management measures. The assessments address three case studies in Lithuania: the construction of a liquefied natural gas terminal in Klaipeda, the renewal of the port of Sventoji, and the opening of a beach in Nida. The application of core and optional indicators highlights the strengths and weaknesses of the management measures. We analyze to what extent, how, and when the InSAT can be applied within a stepwise Systems Approach Framework (SAF) to support sustainable coastal and marine management. Further, we assess how the tool can be applied within other integrated approaches. The application of tailor-made indicators helps to identify potential conflicts and raise discussions about sustainable development between stakeholders and decision-makers and therefore supports the decision-making process. The tool indicates the management measures’ weaknesses, but the assessment results do not indicate what kind of solutions should be undertaken. However, it can still serve to support, guide, and supplement the participation and discussion processes.

Nowadays wellbeing has been closely related to development. The knot was tied in the Sustainable Development Goals. Wellbeing has been acknowledged as the third goals that need to be achieve by all of the member state. Countries need to assure that they provide good health and wellbeing to its people including for the coastal communities. Albeit the important role of wellbeing on sustainable development is recognize, however the relationship between psychological wellbeing and sustainable development between coastal communities is not widely explore. Therefore, aim of this study is to analyse the link between psychological wellbeing and sustainable development of coastal communities using literature review method to assess what has been found in previous study that link psychological wellbeing and sustainable development in the context of coastal communities and what things that need to improve in the future to advance the understanding of the relationship between psychological wellbeing and sustainable development. It is found that the study of the relationship between psychological wellbeing and sustainable development of coastal communities is still limited. Furthermore, psychological wellbeing is still not yet considered in the development of coastal community measurement. Therefore, psychological wellbeing should be integrated in sustainable development of coastal community measurement tool.
