This is an illustrated coloured booklet on shoreline change in Grenada. <strong>The</strong> booklet looks at generic and island-specific<br />
information, on such issues as natural and human forces that affect beach areas, national initiatives to monitor and manage<br />
changes, recommendations on wise practices for a healthy beach. A closing checklist <strong>of</strong> wise practices proposes such<br />
actions as positioning all new developments a 'safe' distance landward <strong>of</strong> the vegetation line, ensuring that the physical<br />
planning process is fair, equitable and transparent, and promoting the concept <strong>of</strong> coastal stewardship and civic pride.<br />
