The CoAdapta | Litoral Project team, headed by QES-AS Scholar, Dr. Allan Yu Iwama, released a mini-documentary about the project and its approach.
The principal goal of the CoAdapta | Litoral Project is to integrate local perception with the scientific knowledge of communities in coastal areas in risk and vulnerability situations to environmental change and climate risks. The project explores, in their different contexts, possibilities to enhance their adaptation to climate risks through strategies and actions on community-based risk co-management.
