Author(s): The Water Institute

The Water Institute of the Gulf released a report that proposes collaboration among organizations and coastal communities in Louisiana and Latin America that can develop and stimulate the implementation of planning and management tools that reduce community risk and improve resiliency in the face of recurring water-driven hazards and water supply disruptions. As part of The Water Institute’s ongoing research to restore and sustain the Louisiana and Gulf coasts, it is also focused on developing and discovering methods to sustain coastal communities and developing tools that are exportable to other places around the world.
