    California ocean science trust (ost, 501c3, EIN: 6 5-1261006) is thrilled to propose a project focused on science informing solutions, as we seek to make coastal nature-based adaptation, specifically living shorelines, work more equitably for nature and people in california. Ost will convene an interdisciplinary working group of experts to develop evidence-based science guidance for achieving socially equitable outcomes of living shorelines. Working group members will represent experts in academic fields such as social vulnerability, coastal ecology, and design/engineering alongside environmental justice practitioners, equity-based nonprofits, and community-based advocacy organizations. Simultaneously, ost will leverage our unique connections to the state to convene an informal advisory committee of state agency policy-makers, as well as public and private funders to ensure that the final results are actionable within california policy and funding for restoration.
