This winter, the Atlantic Human Rights Centre, St. Thomas University's Department of Human Rights, St. Thomas University's Department of Journalism and Communications, the NB Media Co-op and RAVEN invite the public to the Human Rights & the Media Lecture Series. We will hear from scholars of the media and law, media makers and grassroots activists on how our media landscape is changing. We will hear about what they are doing to make this media landscape a more safe, just and equal space.
As a greater number of coastal communities grapple with climate change impacts such as rising sea levels, eroding shorelines, and extreme flooding events, it is becoming clear that coastal ecosystems can provide substantial protection with longer-term resilience compared to traditional grey infrastructure.

The Promoting Adaptation to Changing Coasts (PACCo) project is aimed at demonstrating that it is possible to work with stakeholders in estuarine regions to deliver a range of benefits for people and the environment by adapting pre-emptively to climate change. It has a total value of €26m, with €17.8m coming from the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF). The primary output will be a transferable model to influence policy makers at national and EU level and enable climate change adaptation at more sites.
The project focuses on two pilot sites: the lower Otter Valley, East Devon, England (www.lowerotterrestorationproject.co.uk) and the Saâne Valley in Normandy, France.
