The purpose of the guidance is to inform effective, long-term management of the New South Wales coastal zone through application of an adaptive pathways approach for management of current and future coastal hazards. One of the key benefits of the adaptive pathways approach is that it facilitates a more adaptive approach to management that is proportionate to the risks a community faces at that future time.
