There are many examples of action at the local national, and regional level to proactively adapt to sea level rise from climate change. In addition to the case studies provided in the Sea Level Rise Primer itself, links to the write-ups of some notable examples that may be useful to consider in the context of the UAE and Arabian Peninsula region are provided below:

​
