Weathering the Storm: Building Resilience to Extreme Precipitation

What should communities do to become more resilient to storms and extreme precipitation events like Sandy, Maria, and Irma? Consider the perspectives of diverse stakeholders and discuss the trade-offs of various strategies as you make recommendations for increasing a generalized community’s future resilience.

Join us for an interactive program using visualizations to explore potential vulnerabilities to a community’s infrastructures, social networks, and ecosystems from extreme precipitation events, then discuss potential strategies for addressing these threats, focusing on the priorities and needs of relevant stakeholders.
