Building Partnerships and Investing in Community Flood Resilience
December 3rd
1:00-2:30 ET (10:00-11:30 PT)
Learn about ways to invest in community resilience and use critical partnerships to advance climate change adaptation within communities. This webinar is based on three themes: understanding community-level flood resilience, the power of partnerships, and investing in personal resilience. Speakers will showcase programs and tools they used to forge valuable stakeholder partnerships and engage communities at an individual level, making strides toward climate change resilience across Canadian cities. Hear case studies from Thunder Bay and the Town of Oakville, as well as an important lesson on partnerships from insurance agency The Co-operators.
These presentations were notable highlights from September’s Livable Cities Forum on building flood resiliency, which took place in Calgary, AB. If you missed the Livable Cities Forum, you won’t want to miss this webinar!
