Scaling Up Nature-Based Adaptation: This session will share new technical guidance materials and programmatic regulatory pathways for scaling up nature-based solutions across coastal California.

Nature-Based Solutions on the Outer Coast: This session will share successful partnerships and projects as well as new ideas for nature-based adaptation on California's constrained and high-energy outer coast.

Living Shorelines in Estuaries: This session will share examples of how different agencies, tribes, academics, and non-profits are implementing living shorelines across California's estuaries.

Field Trip to Herons Head:

After lunch, we will be touring the living shoreline at Heron’s Head from 1:00-3:00pm to see and learn about a nature-based solution in action. Bus transportation will be provided from the MetroCenter to Heron's Head. After the Heron’s Head tour, we will remain at the Heron’s Head EcoCenter from 3:00-4:00pm to network and hear about a nearby project. Bus transportation will be provided back to the Bay Area MetroCenter at 4:00pm. We are considering running a shuttle bus back to the Bay Area MetroCenter directly after the tour at 3:00pm for those who are unable to attend the networking hour.
