The Coastal Adaptation and Resilience Outreach Specialist will work with a team of outreach and engagement specialists at the University of Wisconsin Sea Grant Institute (https://www.seagrant.wisc.edu/) to promote resilient communities and economies along the Great Lakes. This will include development and analysis of adaptation and resilience policies, plans, regulations, strategies and decision tools; providing support for existing and emerging coastal resilience networks in Wisconsin in partnership with the Wisconsin Coastal Management Program and other relevant organizations; and enhancing the coastal adaptation and resilience of communities most at-risk for natural disasters and chronic events, with a priority given to challenges faced by tribal, indigenous, remote, and/or economically disadvantaged communities. The specialist will help advance adaptation and resilience actions in the 2024-27 Wisconsin Sea Grant College Program Strategic Plan (https://go.wisc.edu/8kh25x).
