Coastal erosion and landslides have profound and far reaching consequences for individuals, families, and communities.
Conclusion
Coastal erosion and landslides have profound and far reaching consequences for individuals, families, and communities. While the physical loss of homes, buildings, and infrastructure is visible and measurable, the broader human and social impacts are equally severe but are not fully recognised. Impacts include harm to mental wellbeing, the deepening of existing social inequalities, the loss of essential community assets, increased isolation, and the erosion of social cohesion. (Conclusion, Paragraph 7)
