Registration
Registration for state of the coast 2025 is open
State of the Coast is a vital forum for the people of south Louisiana, an interdisciplinary conference to exchange timely and relevant information on the dynamic conditions of our coastal communities, environment and economy and to apply that information to existing and future coastal restoration and protection efforts, policies and decision-making.
SOC is the largest gathering of scientists, policymakers, planners, business interests, educators and private residents concerned with the future of the Louisiana coast. Anyone interested in discussing how we restore, protect and live along Louisiana’s coast is encouraged to attend.
The conference will take place May 20-22, 2025, in New Orleans at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center.
