India’s environment ministry opened a national workshop on coastal resilience in New Delhi on 29 October 2026. The two-day event is being held under the Green Climate Fund project for enhancing the climate resilience of India’s coastal communities, with close to 150 participants.

The project focuses on ecosystems including mangroves, coastal watersheds, seagrass, salt marshes and corals, alongside community livelihoods. The workshop reviewed experience from Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra and Odisha and the potential to replicate approaches, including women-led local climate outreach.

Officials called for shoreline assessments and hazard mapping to inform state, district and local planning, infrastructure and investment. Recommendations are expected to inform broader guidance. The announcement reports a workshop and its intended policy contribution, without establishing that new restoration works or resilience outcomes have already been completed.
