Interventions

Expected Outcomes

Metrics

1

Coastal erosion assessment

Database on coastal dynamics

Visual indicators such as objects (eg: fence, shed or tree) which fall into the sea; non-vegetated clayey banks; slumping slopes; damaged vegetation in the active zone.

2

Build Coastal Defense structures-hard and/or soft engineering structures

Stabilised  Coast

Reduced erosion rate

3

Set up a green belt/buffer zone/natural defense

Prevention of coastal erosion and mitigation of natural hazards

Increase in extent of coastal vegetation

4

Monitoring shoreline dynamics

Sound scientific basis for coastal management

Erosion and accretion rates
