Episode 5 - Co-Designing the Coast: From Science to Shared Solutions 08.07.2026 16:12

Over the past five weeks, Green Tides has taken listeners on a journey through the many dimensions of coastal resilience—from its scientific foundations and the role of education and capacity development, to digital innovation and the experiences of island communities living on the frontline of climate change. In this final episode, we bring these perspectives together by exploring one of the key...

Episode 4 - Community Resilience in Island States 30.06.2026 18:37

In this episode, we explore the challenges and opportunities facing coastal communities at the frontline of climate change. From sea-level rise and coastal erosion to extreme weather events and ecosystem degradation, islands are experiencing some of the most immediate impacts of a changing ocean. At the same time, they are demonstrating how regional cooperation, ocean science, and capacity develop...

Episode 3 - Digital Twin of the Ocean: The New Frontiers of Coastal Science 23.06.2026 16:34

What if we could test the impact of a storm before it ever reaches the coast? We step inside the Digital Twin of the Ocean: a living, virtual replica of the real ocean, continuously updated with satellite data, coastal sensors, ocean models and artificial intelligence. We explore how digital twins, AI, high-performance computing and forecasting systems help scientists and decision-makers anticipat...

Episode 2 - Educating for Coastal Futures: Training the Scientists and Citizens of Tomorrow 16.06.2026 23:15

How can education protect the future of our coasts? We unpack why ocean literacy is a core pillar of coastal resilience for scientists, citizens, communities, policymakers, and young professionals facing climate and ocean challenges firsthand. We follow learners from Brazil to Nigeria, the Philippines and beyond through DCC-CR programmes such as Co-Growth, COMPASS and the OceanTeacher Global Acade...

Episode 1 - Why Coastal Resilience Matters: A Historical and Systemic Perspective 08.06.2026 16:43

What does coastal resilience actually mean? And why does it shape the future of every coastline on Earth? In this opening episode of Green Tides, we trace how coastal resilience moved from a niche term to a global priority, from the 1992 Rio Earth Summit and Agenda 2030 to the UN Ocean Decade. Then we get concrete, exploring how sea-level rise, coastal erosion, pollution and the Law of the Sea (UN...
