The Housing and Climate Change trio is working to understand how we might increase resilience, recognizing that natural hazards disproportionately affect vulnerable populations at a higher rate than other groups. They are leaning into a deeper understanding of housing resilience and the stories that are missing from prominent literature.

 

Portfolio of Learning

 

As a part of their Catamount journey, each trio will create a portfolio of learning to share their insights with the wider community. Each trio is researching their topic, workshoping systems-thinking tools, and engaging with community, and will turn these processes into artifacts and resources to document their learnings. Stay tuned as these learnings are revealed in the coming months!
