Scientific objectives
A cross-cutting question: the adaptation and transformation of coastlines in response to socio-environmental changes"
In a context of major socio-environmental changes (climate disruption, erosion of biodiversity, digital revolution, rising inequalities, shifts in governance models, transfers of models and practices in a context of globalisation, etc.), how are coastal and maritime territories adapting and/or transforming themselves?
The research aims to understand and characterise current functioning, as well as to identify levers and obstacles to the transformation towards sustainability. Indeed, in coastal and marine territories, the tensions between attractiveness and vulnerability, between vulnerabilities and opportunities, and between exploitation and conservation are strongly expressed.
This question is developed along 3 axes:
