Nature-Based Solutions for Ports and Coastal Conservation
16 July 2026


Nature-based solutions are increasingly helping ports and coastal infrastructure strengthen resilience, improve environmental outcomes, and support more sustainable operations. Through practical case studies, speakers will explore how working with natural processes, from wetland restoration and the beneficial reuse of dredged sediment to robotics-enabled marine habitat restoration, can help address climate risks, biodiversity loss, sedimentation, and evolving operational needs across port and coastal environments.

This is the ninth session in the Green Ports Webinar Series, organized by the ASEAN Catalytic Green Finance Facility (ACGF) and hosted by the Southeast Asia Development Solutions platform and Development Asia of the Asian Development Bank (ADB).

ACGF, an ASEAN Infrastructure Fund initiative, supports governments across Southeast Asia in preparing and financing infrastructure projects that advance environmental sustainability and strengthen climate resilience. ACGF is owned by ASEAN governments and ADB.
