Coastal protection under climate change: Innovative dune-dike solutions                 

Accelerating climate change and rising sea levels are exposing coastal regions to unprecedented threats.

This is where the dune-dike solution comes in: a hybrid, nature-based approach that combines natural dunes with artificial dikes to provide a resilient, adaptable and sustainable coastal defence.
