Introduction to the design of coastal nature-based solutions
Understanding design approaches for living shorelines for sustainable coastal adaptation
About
Coastal communities face increasing threats from climate change, rising sea levels, and extreme weather events. Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) offer a sustainable and cost-effective approach to enhancing coastal resilience by working with natural systems rather than against them.
This webinar will explore key NBS strategies, such as beach nourishment, living shorelines, rock fillets and mangrove protection, and how they reduce wave energy through natural dissipation and stabilisation.
Designed for practitioners, designers, assessors, councils, and all those responsible for protecting and managing coastal environments for future resilience, this webinar delivers real-world case studies and implementation insights. Join us for this free introduction and register for the course in May for practical, interactive workshop sessions (see below for details).
