Communities across the country are experiencing the impacts of a changing climate—from stronger storms to flooding, heat, and other climate-intensified hazards. Architects and landscape architects have an important role to play in helping communities prepare for these challenges and better recover after disasters.
Architect Cheryl Morgan, based in Montgomery, Alabama, and landscape architect Aida Curtis, from Miami, Florida, will share lessons from their work and resilience-focused initiatives developed through the Communities by Design program. Drawing from their experiences both within and beyond CxD, they will discuss how design professionals can work alongside local leaders, residents, and other experts to identify risks, strengthen community capacity, and implement strategies that help communities adapt to changing conditions.
