Case studies
Through a series of studies across Europe, we are studying the potential of different adaptation tools for responding to health risks in coastal waters. Our case studies will help us identify the most effective ways to reduce and prevent risks, while using innovative ways to communicate these risks to prevent illness and infection. The case studies will be compared and analysed through a Common Analytical Framework. Explore our case studies to find out more.
