Summary

Anguilla’s coastal habitats have suffered severe degradation in recent years, and were severely impacted by 2018 hurricane season. This project uses coastal habitat vulnerability assessments and an ecosystem modelling approach to identify and prioritise key coastal habitats for restoration activities to increase the resilience of Anguilla’s natural coastal assets to extreme weather events induced by climate change. Restoration activities will be led by a collaborative partnership between communities, governmental and nongovernmental organisations ensuring support and sustainability of project activities.
