dc.description.abstractMore than fifty percent of human populations live within sixty miles of coastlines. As such the creation and maintenance of mitigation and adaptation strategies for threats to coastal communities (such as sea-level rise, salinization and storm surges) are increasingly necessary. The principal objectives of C-CHANGE were: establishing community-university alliances through sharing global research while evaluating strategies for adaptation in the local context; profiling of local community vulnerabilities and risks; building local capacity for managing adaptation strategies; and developing interdisciplinary curricula for university programs and local community schools towards raising awareness and training.en
