Building Resilience - Workshop Series: Resilient Water Systems, Nov 8, LA
Event Description
Access to clean drinking water is a fundamental human right. Californiaâs water system faces a variety of changes, from drought to an aging water infrastructure, to changes in precipitation. Learn how resilience principles apply to water systems and what solutions exist to transform and protect the regionâs water supply and quality.
This series of 90-minute workshops are designed to introduce you to what resilience is and how it applies to your life at home and at work. Workshops will explore integrating resilience into your projects, designing resilient communities, resilience assessments, passive survivability, and making the business case for resilience. You can join the series at any time.
