RISKCOAST promotes innovation to face a set of threatens linked to climate change: landslides, fields’ subsidence due to the intense exploitation of aquifers during droughts, erosion and loss of soils after torrents, erosion of sandy coasts and deltas regression. The project offers a whole vision of risks, which affect in particular the coasts of the Sudoe’s territory, by taking into account the hydrological basin. RISKCOAST proposes a set of natural renovation measures, adapted to every risk and territory, respecting environmental protection measures and a minimum impact on ecosystems. For this purpose, RISKCOAST provides strategies for a more coordinated and efficient management of risks, based on 3 phases of emergencies’ management: prevention, response, renovation, and validation through participative simulacrums. In another hand, the project promotes the creation of a participative platform to improve the communication between the scientist community and society.
