Flood risk denial in US coastal communities

(Lehigh University) Cultural anthropologist David Casagrande along with his colleagues are working to identify flood-prone locations, key individuals, and intervention strategies that lead to community-based mitigation in US coastal communities. He will present some of his findings at The annual meeting of the Society for Applied Anthropology (SFAA) in Philadelphia next week in a session called 'Sustainable Futures of Chesapeake Communities Facing Relative Sea-level Rise.'
