As a small island-city state, Singapore is particularly vulnerable to rising sea levels.
To safeguard Singapore’s future, we must take action now.
Since 2020, PUB, Singapore’s national water agency, has been leading and coordinating nationwide efforts to protect Singapore’s coastline. We have been conducting various studies around different segments of our coastline, and engaging stakeholders and communities on the need for coastal protection and the possible options.
Join us at Singapore’s first-ever coastal protection exhibition and see how far we’ve come! Because when it comes to protecting our coastline, every one of us has a stake in it. Together, we can reimagine the possibilities and shape the future of our coasts.
