Introducing a new FREE Green Shores Training Module: Coastal Processes and Application of Nature-based Erosion and Flood Management Solutions

Cost: FREE

Location: Saint Mary’s University

When: December 20th, 10am-3pm

This exciting new course will help you identify key aspects of shoreline and coastal processes relevant to sites within Nova Scotia and British Columbia and will help familiarize you with general topics related to shorelines, coastal processes and nature-based approaches to shoreline management. The overview of shoreline and coastal processes forms the basis of understanding all other aspects of shoreline stabilization and alternatives to armouring such as nature-based, Green Shores solutions.

This module is open to anyone interested in increasing their knowledge of coastal processes, for example: land use decision-makers such as local government planners, environmental coordinators and adaptation specialists; contractors; non-profit organizations who need better understanding of coastal processes in order to assess potential projects or complete project assessments, especially for nature-based erosion and flood management solutions.
