Future Earth Coasts provides a platform for networking and providing ‘added value’ to the outputs of our community to explore and understand the drivers and social-environ-mental impacts of global environmental change in coastal zones.

Our goal is to strengthen the science-policy interface and con-tribute to securing sustainable coastal futures in the new epoch called the Anthropocene. We aim to develop a scientific and technological community from all disciplines for the co-design and co-production of knowledge that will engage with policymakers, business, industry and other stakeholders.
