Join us for an engaging event with Associate Professor Kristoffer Albris on the Coastal Conflicts project, on the 15th of May, 10:30-12:00, Copenhagen time (CET).

From the project's description: 

"Coastal Conflicts examines which issues create conflicts for coastal protection activities, and how such conflicts develop and in which forums they play out. In doing so, the project will do a systematic mapping of the characteristics of these conflicts across Denmark, and conduct ethnographic fieldwork in three selected case study areas of Denmark. The overall impact aim of Coastal Conflicts is to provide a set of recommendations and suggestions as to how citizens, municipalities and other authorities can deal with disagreements in the future, which might mitigate the risk of protection plans being postponed to the detriment of homeowners. The aim is thus to make a substantial contribution to climate adaptation research in Denmark."

The event will be held online.
