MIT Water Summit will focus on coastal cities and ecosystems

More than 40% of the world's population lives within 100 km (60 mi) of a coastline. How can we continue to sustain both these communities and the invaluable coastal ecosystems in which they reside? This year's MIT Water Summit seeks to explore the unique issues facing coastal cities and ecosystems by investigating the balance between the built and natural environment.
Hosted by the MIT Water Club, the MIT Water Summit is an annual two-day event that brings together leaders from industry, government, and the scientific community to discuss the greatest challenges and opportunities in the water sector. This year’s Summit will be a hybrid event with both in-person and virtual components!

*Ocean Policy and Environmental Justice
