About the event
Navigating Uncertainty in Local Governments: Water, Resilience, and Climate Adaptation
Cities are on the frontlines of climate change — managing floods one season and droughts and fires the next, making infrastructure decisions that will last fifty years under deep uncertainty. Speakers join as case contributors, each bringing a live challenge or hard-won lesson from their work.
We're pleased to welcome our speakers:
Jonathan Koehn (City of Boulder Climate Initiatives)
Pat Reed (Cornell University)
Lillian Lau (Cornell University)
