In this episode, we explore the challenges and opportunities facing coastal communities at the frontline of climate change. From sea-level rise and coastal erosion to extreme weather events and ecosystem degradation, islands are experiencing some of the most immediate impacts of a changing ocean. At the same time, they are demonstrating how regional cooperation, ocean science, and capacity development can strengthen resilience and support sustainable coastal futures. Featuring Lorna Inniss, Head of the IOCARIBE Secretariat, Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) of UNESCO, and Wenxi Zhu, Head of the IOC Sub-Commission for the Western Pacific (WESTPAC), Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) of UNESCO, the episode explores how international collaboration, knowledge exchange, and science-based approaches are helping island and coastal communities build resilience across the Caribbean and the Western Pacific.
