Environmental Data Analysis for Coastal Protection
This pioneering project unites San Diego, Tijuana, and Rosarito to boost shared coastal resilience via environmental data analysis and joint action.
Led by the Permanent Forum of Binational Waters, it merges science and grassroots work to confront environmental challenges.
Strengthening Coastal Resilience through Environmental Data Analysis
One Coast One Community centers on ecosystem–community links, honoring their mutual dependence and integrated health. Scientists, policymakers, educators, and activists design a holistic strategy aligned with coastal dynamics.
The initiative promotes multidisciplinary solutions using community engagement, policy advocacy, and environmental data analysis. Its expert network strengthens border-region water quality and coastal resilience.
