Littoral2010 promises to be a pivotal moment in European coastal and maritime research. The European Commission’s Integrated Maritime Strategy is beginning to alter the European worldview of the coast, yet many claim that the academic world remains rooted in an environmental mindset!
CoastNet have made a special effort to break the mold with Littoral2010, with conference themes spanning environment, economy and society. Come and debate the challenge of adaptation to climate change; take part in workshops on regeneration and participation; listen to our internationally renowned keynote speakers on the coastal economy and society. Add your voice to those of practitioners and researchers from Europe and around the world, and contribute to our formal Conference Statement to the European Commission.
The 10th Littoral Conference
Littoral 2010 – an international conference for researchers and practitioners
"Adapting to global change at the coast: Leadership, Innovation, and Investment"
Organised by CoastNet, Eurocoast and EUCC and to be held at the Royal Geographical Society, London.
21st to 23rd September 2010
Across the world coasts are dynamic and ever-changing. In recent years an improved understanding of natural processes has generated new concepts in the management of coastal landforms, water bodies and ecosystems. But we must not overlook social and economic changes, which are just as important in providing the context for sustainable management. Indeed ‘global change’ is as much about the globalisation of the economy and society as it is about global environmental change.
