Human Dimensions of Coastal Social-Ecological Systems
This project examines how climate change, governance, policy, and community capacities shape food security among coastal Indigenous and Local Communities (ILCs). Using global systematic literature reviews, the project focuses on the social, institutional, and policy dimensions that influence coastal communities’ ability to sustain culturally important food systems under climate change.
