CoCliCo.
Responding to sea-level rise.
To protect our coasts and adapt to the impacts of sea-level rise, Coastal Climate Core Services (CoCliCo) launched an authoritative, integrated coastal climate core service, bringing together the most advanced data and analysis on sea level rise projections and coastal risk.
Improving present-day and future coastal decision-making.

The sea is rising.
Even if Paris Agreement's climate goals are achieved, sea levels will rise by at least 0.3 - 0.6m in 2100 and continue to rise for centuries. This poses a significant concern for Europe due to the potential impacts on coastal flooding, given the infrastructure close to shorelines and low-lying areas.
A consortium of experts.
For four years, CoCliCo brought together 17 partners, each contributing deep expertise in sea-level rise, coastal hazards, exposure and adaptation economics.
Advancing science.
CoCliCo fostered bidirectional contribution, combining the best available science and advancing the field through analysis.
Informing action.
The platform launched in May 2026 is open-access, open-source, and designed for usability, democratizing knowledge for informed decisions by policymakers and researchers.
Contributing to the CoCliCo consortium.
Delivered with impact.
From development to dissemination.
CoCliCo is an open-source web platform informing users on present-day & future coastal risks with the goal of improving decision-making on coastal risk management and adaptation.
We created the website, communications plan, oversaw the execution of the plan and managed all communication channels. We advised on the platform's development, to ensure user stories and experience were central to the design. We shared the story of CoCliCo to help bring it to the people who needed to use it.
