Roundtable 2 - Sea Level Rise & Flooding

Roundtable 2
March 4, 2020 - Sea Level Rise & Flooding

The second roundtable brought together 120 community leaders, experts, and practitioners in our region invested in resilience efforts around sea level rise, flooding and climate.

Expert keynotes, a community panel, and small table workshops helped participants explore current and potential impacts of flooding and sea level rise on vulnerable populations, natural ecosystems, the economy, and infrastructure. These also worked to identify gaps, critical issues, and tensions in need of resolution, before delving into methods for creating a collaborative vision for climate and disaster resilience.
