LIFE COSTAdapta: cooperation for replicable coastal adaptation in island territories

Technical Coordinator | EU LIFE Climate Adaptation Project at Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, ULPGC

Spain

About

LIFE COSTAdapta is an EU LIFE project based in Gran Canaria focused on coastal adaptation, community resilience, and the development of nature-based and hybrid solutions for vulnerable coastal areas.

Through this opportunity, we would like to connect with:

  • island and coastal public authorities

  • researchers and technical teams

  • coastal managers and practitioners

  • NGOs and local stakeholders

  • organisations interested in replication, transferability, or future cooperation

We are especially interested in exchanging knowledge on:

  • replicating adaptation approaches in island and coastal territories

  • ecosystem-informed and place-based coastal design

  • governance, stakeholder engagement, and social acceptance

  • monitoring, evaluation, and adaptive management

  • long-term environmental, social, and economic sustainability of coastal adaptation measures

This is not primarily a search for formal project partners, but rather for relevant stakeholders, territories, and organisations interested in sharing experiences, exploring transferability, and building future collaboration around coastal resilience.
