Addressing Uncertainty in Coastal Resilience Building
‘Futureproofing: Water and Climate Adaptation’ is a webinar series focused on adaptation strategy, practices, and financing for coastal areas, including islands and deltas.
The series is designed to support the ambition of the International Panel on Deltas and Coastal Areas - to build capacity for effective adaptation planning, governance, and finance – through online knowledge sharing. The webinars consist of expert presentations and panel discussions.
The first webinar, ‘Addressing Uncertainty in Coastal Resilience Building’, showcases coastal adaptation projects to frame how future-oriented planning and risk reduction can support communities and economic resilience.
