Resilience Summit Opening Session and Keynote

We are halfway through the so-called “Decade of Action” on climate. Climate risks are rising, as are the costs of damage and adaptation; though pressing challenges remain, real estate is responding, as are governments and the community sector. This opening session and keynote will combine local and national perspectives to examine the future of adaptation finance, investment, and funding; garner lessons from recent catastrophes, such as the Los Angeles wildfires and Hurricane Helene, to better protect communities; and explore replicable local and state efforts to enhance resilience and protect development.
