The Decade Collaborative Centre for Coastal Resilience will participate in the upcoming COP30, to be held in Belém, Brazil, contributing to the global dialogue on climate action and coastal adaptation.

Together with CoastPredict and in collaboration with the CMCC Foundation – Euro-Mediterranean Center on Climate Change, the DCC-CR will co-organize the side event “Empowering Coastal Communities: science-based solutions for resilience and adaptation.”
The event will take place on 11 November, from 11:30 to 13:00, at the Italian Pavilion, Blue Zone, Parque da Cidade, in Belém.

The event will bring together experts and practitioners from around the world to discuss science-based strategies for strengthening coastal resilience, promoting regional collaboration, and scaling up effective adaptation practices. Discussions will spotlight address key solutions such as multi-hazard early warning systems, nature-based solutions, and the socio-economic dimensions of climate resilience — with a focus on experiences from Small Island Developing States and coastal communities in the Caribbean, Pacific, and Southeast Asia.

By contributing to this dialogue, the DCC-CR reaffirms its mission to connect science and society for sustainable coastal development, fostering cooperation across regions and sectors.

Further details and the event programme will be shared soon.
