Webinar Summary:

As sea level rise, coastal storms, flooding, erosion, and subsidence increasingly threaten our coastal communities, many land use professionals have been innovating solutions. In this webinar, speakers from design, engineering, and finance backgrounds feature case studies of coastal resilience strategies in real estate and land use.

Webinar agenda:

  • Welcome and introductions
  • Presentation on coastal resilience strategies by Stefan Al, author of 'Adapting Cities to Sea Level Rise: Green and Gray Strategies'
  • Presentation on engineering for coastal resilience by Edgar Westerhof, Vice President, North America Adaptation Solution Lead, Arcadis U.S., Inc.
  • Presentation on finance options for resilient real estate development by Isabel de Caires, Director, Investment Banking, CIBC FirstCaribbean International Bank
  • Q&A with audience

Our hope is that by sharing strategies, resources, and guidance, ULI can support the integration of coastal resilience strategies into land use and real estate development practices and policies, allowing our coastal regions to not just to avert and recover from crises, but also to thrive.
