Strengthening the Shores: Innovative Approaches to Coastal Erosion Live Webinar
Public Webinar: October 25, 2024
Coastal erosion is a significant concern in the Philippines, where over 36,000 kilometers of coastline face relentless natural and human-induced threats. Vulnerable areas suffer due to a mix of geographical features and climate conditions, leading to significant loss of land and habitat. While restoring mangrove forests and coastal vegetation can provide natural buffers, many situations demand immediate and multifaceted solutions. This involves coastal engineering techniques such as seawalls, breakwaters, and beach nourishment to effectively combat erosion’s effects.
