Coastal Conversations: June 18, 2020
The Coasts, Climates, Humanities and the Environment Consortium is funded by a pilot grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation for two years. Its partners are the University of Georgia, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, the University of Florida, and Louisiana State University. The consortium has a series of site-specific and publicly engaged research projects in coastal sites, which look at questions of climate breakdown, community resilience and the capacity of the humanities to imagine the futures of places under threat from storms and sea-level rise.
This is the last in a series of four conversations featuring participants in the consortium and scholars whose research informs its work.
The full conversation and a short preview are below.
The participants are:
Jacqueline Lawton, University of North Carolina – Chapel Hill
Stephen Berry, University of Georgia
Ken Sassaman, University of Florida
Nicholas Allen, moderator, University of Georgia
