THETIDA – Signalgenerix

Technologies and methods for improved resilience and sustainable preservation of underwater and coastal cultural heritage to cope with climate change, natural hazards and environmental pollution

 

Project Overview:

 

Europe’s coastal and underwater cultural heritage is under threat. Climate change and natural hazards pose major problems. Solutions require improved management, protection and preparedness. With this in mind, the EU-funded THETIDA project will develop policy tools for climate neutrality and economic resilience in coastal areas. Specifically, it will design a preventive conservation strategy for underwater and coastal sites. It will also identify additional threats and promote adaptation, reconstruction and other post-disruption strategies. The project’s interdisciplinary team of researchers, experts and practitioners will develop and validate an integrated multiple heritage risk assessment and protection system. To that end, they will use evidence-based monitoring frameworks, innovative tools and instruments as well as citizen science and Living Labs methodologies.
