The CEAR Hub strives to create equitable education opportunities for underserved and underrepresented youth living in coastal Georgia. By increasing understanding of sea level rise, coastal ecology, disaster mitigation, information technology, environmental justice, and climate resilience, we are helping to develop the next generation of climate leaders. Our K-12 education programs are led by the Georgia Tech Center for Education Integrating Science, Mathematics, and Computing (CEISMC), Savannah State University Department of Marine Sciences, and University of Georgia Marine Extension and Georgia Sea Grant.
