Description:"This document is part of a two-volume guide that provides a foundation for communities to assess local coastal processes and the impacts humans are having on coastal areas, and identify appropriate actions required to build the resilience of coastlines and communities. It is divided into 1) Volume One: Outreach 2) Volume Two: Planning. This volume (1) provides detailed outreach materials to support an understanding of how coastlines work and what causes coastal flooding and shoreline change (natural and human-related). It also provides examples of case studies and community stories from around the Pacific region that illustrate key concepts about coastal change. This document includes illustrations and photos, with simple information that clearly explains coastal-process concepts, and key messages and recommendations from coastal experts about specific actions that have the best chance for providing long-term benefits for the community and coastline"--Purpose.
