History of
International Coastal Symposium (ICS)
The International Coastal Symposium (ICS) was originally set up by Per Bruun (deceased) and Charlie Finkl as
the official meeting of the Coastal Education & Research Foundation (CERF), with the first meeting being held
in Hilton Head, South Carolina, in 1993. After the repeated success of these meetings, CERF moved the ICS to
the international scene holding these conferences in conjunction with local sponsors in Australia, Brazil, Iceland,
New Zealand, Northern Ireland, Poland and Portugal. The ICS brings together delegates from all over the world
to collaborate and discuss the most current coastal research studies and projects. The ICS 2014, which is scheduled
to be held from April 13–17 in Durban, South Africa, will be a grand celebration of CERF and the JCR, marking
the 30th Anniversary for both. For more information, please visit www.cerf-jcr.org
