How do we study a world in which changes in coastal landscapes, higher education, and policy occur in tandem? Perspectives from faculty in environmental sciences, policy, and religious studies will explore the scope and innovation of UVA’s work in coastal regions and beyond. From policy to spirituality, from connecting the science to people's livelihoods, join Lifetime Learning for a conversation about changes in scholarship and coastal communities. In honor of the 20th Anniversary of UVA’s Anheuser Busch Coastal Research Center, this online discussion will explore the enduring collaborations among scholars and the community to support vibrant coastal futures.
Before the webinar, you can explore the complexities of changing coastal life by viewing the free Against the Current documentary. It explores life and coastal challenges for those living on the Eastern Shore of Virginia, which is also home to UVA’s research on the coast.
Speakers are: Karen McGlathery, Elizabeth Andrews, and Willis Jenkins.
