In a significant move to streamline access to valuable research and resources, the Future Earth Coasts Lagoons for Life working group has successfully migrated its website to the official FEC website. The transition, which was recently completed, aims to enhance accessibility and provide a centralized platform for researchers, practitioners, and stakeholders interested in lagoon ecosystems.

Lagoons for Life working group is an international initiative under the FEC framework that brings together natural and social scientists to co-develop holistic sustainable management strategies for coastal lagoons around the world. The working group focuses on the potential and challenges for satellite Earth Observation (EO) and look at how EO can add value to and support coastal lagoon management in combination with other data sources.

The website migration brings forth streamlined navigation, enhanced integration with FEC initiatives and the creation of a centralized hub accessible to a wide-ranging audience. This strategic consolidation aligns with FEC’s mission to unite scientific and societal communities in tackling urgent coastal issues.

FEC invites all interested parties to explore the new website that features information and useful resources on lagoons ecosystems including an interactive map showing lagoon case studies and existing EO datasets, ongoing research projects, collaborative opportunities. It is a FEC-wide platform for engaging in discussions and sharing knowledge and Lagoons for Life eagerly welcomes interaction through it.

For more information, please visit the Lagoons for Life website on the FEC website. To join Lagoons for Life or add your lagoon site to the interactive map, please send us an email.
