About the Workshop
NOAA's Office for Coastal Management (OCM), the National Sea Grant Office (NSGO), and the American Society of Adaptation Professionals (ASAP) hosted the 2024 Coastal Inundation Community of Practice Workshop on November 12-14, 2024, at the University of Washington Center for Urban Horticulture in Seattle, Washington. This workshop brought together 100 coastal flooding practitioners representing diverse transdisciplinary perspectives. This in-person workshop provided a unique opportunity to build relationships among practitioners from across the country. Coastal communities faced tremendous inundation threats, and local practitioners addressed these challenges with innovative solutions that transformed coastal ecosystems, built environments, and socioeconomic structures.
The event was designed to allow practitioners to learn from one another and foster networks of peer support. Participants:
- Built relationships with colleagues nationwide who were addressing inundation challenges.
- Heard and exchanged innovative approaches for tackling inundation challenges in local communities.
- Shared and learned about the latest scientific data, tools, and modeling advances related to inundation.
- Explored and co-developed products to address inundation questions.
- Helped shape the future activities and direction of the Coastal Inundation Community of Practice.
