Canadian Institute of Planners hosts planning resilience webinar – August 2021

In August 2021, the Canadian Institute of Planners (CIP) is hosting the webinar “Planning for Disaster Resilience.” In line with CIP’s key policy priority of climate change planning, this session delves into the question of how we can plan communities that are more resilient while building capacity and managing risk. Speakers will also address how to use available tools like research, policies, and plans to help mitigate disaster and increase resiliency. Molly Mowery (WPI) shared information about wildfire planning in the context of Canada’s growing wildland-urban interface.
