COMMUNITY RESILIENCY
WORKING WITH COMMUNITIES TO INCREASE CLIMATE CHANGE RESILIENCY THROUGH NATURAL AND NATURE-BASED FEATURES

Working with communities to design, implement, and monitor natural and nature-based strategies to increase climate change resiliency.
-
Supporting communities to take ownership of the strategies and develop community leadership
