2018 Local Solutions: Eastern Climate Preparedness Conference


Local Solutions is our third biennial event, presented by Antioch University New England and NOAA.  The event's workshops and speakers will cover a range of climate preparedness and resiliency issues such as: sea level rise, urban heat, vector disease, environmental justice, community engagement, and both coastal and inland flooding issues. The conference is geared for small government planners and decision-makers striving to create healthy resilient communities that are better able to handle severe weather and climate impacts. The current methodologies, protocols and policies inherent in planning and budgeting at the community level are not always adequate for the recent onslaught of climate impacts. This conference guides local government planners on how to make climate resilience an aspect of their daily operations.
