Mobilizing & sharing knowledge
The Coastal Habitats Hub mobilizes and shares knowledge to improve understanding and better inform decision-making for coastal nature-based climate solutions across Canada. By bringing together resources and tools, the Hub aims to make knowledge easier to find and apply. This work also helps us identify knowledge and research gaps related to kelp forests, seagrass meadows and salt marshes.
Our offerings will continue to grow as the Hub matures, and we encourage you to share any recommendations you may have for resources we can share as well as any other ideas for how the Hub can better support this community.
