The Canadian government has announced up to $30 million in funding for pilot projects through the Climate-Resilient Coastal Communities (CRCC) program. These projects will address climate change impacts such as sea-level rise, coastal erosion, extreme storms, flooding, and wildfires in coastal regions. The CRCC program aims to foster collaboration between communities and businesses to develop innovative solutions for climate change adaptation and resilience. It will support up to 25 regional-scale pilot projects that take an integrated, systems-based approach to building resilience in coastal areas, involving multiple sectors, jurisdictions, Indigenous rights-holders, and stakeholders. The funding is part of Canada’s efforts to address climate-related risks and enhance community and economic resilience.
