The American Library Association has called climate change the “greatest challenge of our generation.” In partnership with the Mid-Hudson Library System and Ramapo Catskill Library System,  Sustainable Hudson Valley has designed a program of action planning, training and support for libraries as living laboratories for climate resilience in their communities.  This will help library leadership make their facilities energy-secure, safe and comfortable in extreme weather, and position them  to serve as community hubs for education and action projects to help their surrounding neighborhood deal with climate change.

This cohort program includes 4-sessions to facilitate participants’ understanding of climate resilience needs and opportunities at and around their locations, and the participatory approaches to working with local stakeholder partners to capture these opportunities.

 

Session 2 [Online]  What to Do: Technologies and Strategies for Ensuring Resilience in a Changing Climate. Take a deeper dive into technology and funding opportunities to facilitate neighborhood-based climate resilience approaches.  Examples of initiatives, programs, and tried-and-true projects undertaken by public institutions, city governments, private property owners, etc. designed to build climate adaptive and sustainable communities will be presented.
