Thursday, May 21
1:15 pm – 2:45 pm EDT

The Along the Urban Path series is a practical primer on the burgeoning topic of urban resilience. Webinar 2 examines the interaction of pairs of systems to provide the audience with a way to consider the impacts and resulting trade offs of actions in one system on another. It will include
  • Bill Solecki from City University of New York who will assess the socio-technological impacts of Hurricane Sandy
  • Authors of the Royal Society Resilience to Extreme Weather Report and
  • Peter Groffman with the Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies focusing on ecological, cultural, and economic forces that shape the environmental quality of urbanized areas
Attendees, curious minds, practitioners, and the general public are invited to dialogue about the webinars and the topic of “urban resilience” before and after the live webinars on the Security & Sustainability Forum LinkedIn Group page in the designated thread.

The third webinar in the series will be scheduled for June and cover the integration of social, ecological, and technological systems on the urban path to resilience. 
 
The series is co hosted by Second Nature, the National Council on Science and the Environment and the American Association for Sustainability in Higher Education.
