4 Unifying STEM for Sustainable Management of Coastal
Resources
The authors have been actively involved in national and global outreach initiatives to
provide leadership in spearheading climate change adaptation (SDG 13) in preparing
coastal communities to be climate resilient. The overarching objective of this initiative is to utilize the power of STEM in promoting a trans-disciplinary and sustainable
approach for assessing and mitigating the adverse impact of climate change on coastal
groundwater and vegetation. DESD and SDGs advocate integrating science and technology into other dimensions of SD to capitalize on synergy and inclusiveness. Mastery in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) will enhance
