During the first workshop in French Polynesia, coastal climate services (CCS) proposals were co-designed with the workshop participants based on the main challenges highlighted by the stakeholders.

Heitea TEROROTUA, PhD student contributing to the development of coastal climate services in French Polynesia, is currently between Tahiti and Rangiroa until the end of February 2019. Her main objectives are to work with all the stakeholders in order to develop further the following four coastal climate services :

• CCS 1 : Critical infrastructures and sea-level rise
• CCS 2 : Destabilisation of high and low islands and adaptation strategies
• CCS 3 : Professional training and new jobs
• CCS 4 : Participatory science to support the observation of impacts

To this end, several meetings and workshops will be planned with the involved stakeholders. On February 2019, Aurélie Maspataud (BRGM) and Virginie Duvat (LIENSs) will join Heitea on Tahiti for the workshops that will be held in Tahiti.
