Project Support

The International Association of Maritime Security Professionals (the Association) is pleased to announce that it will support the “Helping Coastal Communities Prepare” project currently underway in central Nova Scotia, Canada. This project, initiated by an Association member, focuses on improving the resources available to residents who have faced significant challenges over the past two years due to climate-related issues ranging from severe snowfalls to significant storms and wildfires.

By using this project as one of its directed research projects, the Association demonstrates its commitment to building capacity within the maritime security space. Coastal communities and their infrastructure have been at increased risk due to the increasing frequency and intensity of storms. Residents of Nova Scotia and the broader Maritimes need no further explanation of what these challenges have involved. By offering this support, this project will be able to broaden its scope and depth of analysis.
