Future of FCERM at Flood & Coast 2026

ADA is once again looking forward to being a Strategic Partner in this year’s Flood & Coast event being organised by CIWEM on 09-11 June 2026 at the Liverpool Exhibition Centre.

CIWEM have just launched a call for abstracts for students and early career professionals to present at the ‘Future of FCERM’ stage at the Conference in June.

It would be great to have representation from all types of RMAs, and from people working in rural areas, so ADA would like to encourage members to share this information with colleagues and encourage applications. The deadline for submissions is 29 March.

There isn’t a specific criteria for what counts as ‘early career’, but CIWEM summarise this as students, apprentices, graduates and early career professionals in the first ~5 years of their career in the sector (this could be following a career change or move from a different sector).

You can find further details from CIWEM to share with colleagues here:
