C-RISe supports vulnerable coastal populations from the consequences of climate variability and climate change

In partnership between the UK, Mozambique, Madagascar and South Africa to provide access to information on sea level, storm surge, wind speed and wave heights.

Training programme

One of C-RISe’s main aims is building local capacity: using satellite data to provide scientific decision support for strategy development, coastal management and governance to increase resilience to hazards.

Use cases

By developing Use Case examples, C-RISe is exploring ways to translate Earth observation (EO) data into social and economic impact. We’re building local capacity to use satellite observations for coastal development.
