Climate adaptation is no small task. From rising sea levels and coastal land loss to gulf hypoxia and natural disasters, we face enormous challenges that require a new approach – one that is collaborative and embraces innovation.That’s why the ByWater Institute is bringing together a diverse group of stakeholders, from community organizers and local governments to academic researchers and industry experts. Working together, we're creating convergence research that is rooted in community engagement to tackle the challenges of adapting to climate change head-on.Our work starts in New Orleans, but we're committed to making an impact around the world. From the Mississippi to the Mekong, we're building a network of partners to develop solutions that prioritize equitable access to environmentally safe spaces, connecting communities with the resources they need to thrive in the face of adversity.
