ABOUT THE PROJECT

This research project focuses on environmental experience, knowledge and skills – ‘environmental heritage’ – that is gained by living and acting in the Finnish coastal area and archipelago of the Baltic Sea. Environmental heritage regarding  environmental changes is useful in the search of ways to adapt to climate change. This project elaborates such heritage for the use of scientific research on climate change adaptation and, ultimately, for the facilitation of adaptation strategies at various levels of governance as well as in everyday life.
