About Us
Problem-solving in the present to safeguard the future.
We are in the process of developing three “pillars” to help build coastal resilience competence among local decision-makers:
1
Coastal Resilience Mapping Tool
Harnessing the power of Esri/ArcGIS, the Coastal Resilience Mapping Tool (clever name pending!) will significantly enhance users' access to coastal resilience resources. By plotting national youth climate corps, ports, blue economy projects, and workforce readiness programs, this tool will help identify gaps in coastal resilience initiatives and empower communities to make informed decisions. The initiative will prioritize data accessibility by aggregating information from diverse sources and presenting it in a user-friendly format. The interface will include a guided experience to discover new information based on specific needs.
2
Regional Advisory Board (RAB)
The RAB will be composed of inter-disciplinary decision-makers, specialists, and community members to function as a coastal resilience backbone advisory body for communities within its region. The RAB will facilitate connections between community members, local decision-makers, and resources, thereby supporting better coordination of coastal resilience initiatives across communities.
3
Blue Glue Initiative
“Blue Glue” is a new term we are nurturing to describe how our ports and harbors can bring together surrounding communities, the maritime industry and coastline stakeholders in a positive way. The “Blue Glue” effort will provide a new lens around ports and harbors to test the theory of whether they can serve as a model for creating jobs, taking on the climate crisis, and tackling equity and inclusion. This includes: 1) alignment of ports, harbors and communities in a way that addresses the urgency of ocean and planetary threats, 2) addresses the high cost of living by creating new job opportunities, and 3) breaks down silos along and between coastlines.
