Coastal Resilience: Developing the Community of Practice

About the event:

The Coastal Resilience Community of Practice was formed as a space for individuals, organisations, policy makers, managers, community members and activists to share insights, build collaborations, and learn about (and from) each other. It is open to anyone with an interest in coastal resilience.

Initially formed as part of the ARISE Initiative, we have run one in-person day event and several online meetings. We developed a (free to download) book to share initial insights, and a range of themes that have emerged from these discussions. We're eager to learn more.

We're interested in co-developing a strategy that helps put the Community of Practice on a sustainable, long-term footing. At our next event we want to identify objectives for the group that meet the needs of the community, are accessible, and provide meaningful opportunities to better understand real-world problems in the resilience of our coasts.

If this sounds like something you would like to be part of - perhaps you have already come to some events, or it may be your first time hearing about it - we would like to welcome you at the University of East Anglia on the 13th November.

All perspectives, experiences, and expertise are welcome and equally valued.

For those who are not attending through their work, we may be able to contribute to the costs of attending this event. Please email Scott at [email protected].

If you would like to experience an event where:

• People feel welcome, relaxed and connected with others through common interests and passions.
• The group's objectives can be explored without dominant agendas.
• You're back in a space that is fun, engaged and inclusive.
• People want to meet again out of enthusiasm rather than obligation.
• There's the option of a guided tour of the Sainsbury Centre

Then please join us:

• For a day of activities (10:30 -16:00 including optional closing event) on 13th November 2025, in person only, at the University of East Anglia, hosted as part of the ARISE research project.
• Closer to the time, we will share campus and arrival information.
