Lessons Learned: How We Adapt on the Road to Climate Adaptation

October 12, 2023 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm

Climate change adaptation is characterized by flexibility—our ability to adapt to an unprecedented crisis. Across geographies, scales, and focus areas, we’ve seen many successful examples of climate adaptation projects, many of which we’ve featured in our forums. But these successes would not have been possible without the ability to pivot in the face of obstacles. Learn from our expert panel as they reflect on the limitations and challenges they’ve encountered in a wide variety of climate change adaptation projects, and how those challenges can inform our next steps as a community of practice.
