Climate Resilient Communities

Climate Resilient Communities

This research area aims to explore nature-based and/or engineering-based solutions to protect coastal communities from coastal erosion and sea level rise and to increase the flooding resilience of both inland and coastal communities. The main objectives of this research area include: (a) increasing the awareness level of coastal climate impacts and resilience by utilizing drone technologies, satellite imagery, and geospatial visualization techniques; (b) improving the knowledge and skills of vulnerable populations about how to better adapt to coastal climate change; (c) increasing the willingness of individuals and communities to take preventative measures to mitigate the negative impacts; and (d) promoting coastal climate adaptation actions at both individual and community levels.

The Climate Smart Lab would like to acknowledge various funding support from NSERC (DG/RTI/Alliance/CREATE), SSHRC, NRFR, CFI, Mitacs, NRCan, AAFC, NRC, ACOA, Government of PEI, Genome Atlantic, City of Charlottetown, Island Nature Trust, and many other industries and organizations.

Here in the Climate Smart Lab, we are a group of people developing sustainable climate solutions with cutting-edge technologies to help build climate-resilient communities. Collectively, we are working together with experts from all disciplines to build a climate-smart future for the next generation and many generations to come.
