AIA Oregon Resiliency Series: Earth, Water, Wind, Fire

Join AIA Oregon for their 5-part Resiliency Series, running weekly starting on September 6. Up to 6 AIA LU|HSW Available

Making our communities resilient means addressing the natural hazards associated with the geological and climatic processes that created the environment we live in. It has become even more challenging as we actively change the climate. Please join us as we explore resilience efforts based on the four elements of earth, wind, water and fire. They examine the impacts these hazards on the built environment and look at how they can be mitigated. The series ends with a moderated panel discussion that steps back to look how these elements fit together and what lessons can be learned.
