It is a great pleasure to welcome you to the International Symposium on “Coastal Resilience: Mitigating Threats for Healthy Oceans.”

This event aims to bring together leading international experts to collaboratively address the most pressing challenges facing coastal ecosystems. It will serve as a space for interdisciplinary dialogue focused on identifying innovative and transformative research directions, which will form the basis for a strategic document outlining new scientific priorities and recommendations to guide future research investment policies.

We trust that this symposium will not only foster the exchange of cutting-edge knowledge, but also serve as a starting point for lasting collaborations that promote sustainable solutions for the conservation and resilience of our coasts and oceans.
