Climate Adaptation: Preparing Vancouver’s Workforce for Coastal Reality
UBC panel examining workforce skills and emerging roles to implement coastal climate resilience in the Pacific Northwest
The Pacific Northwest faces immediate climate risks: sea level rise, extreme weather, infrastructure vulnerability. Resilience has become an operational necessity.
The panel explores how we are responding to physical climate risks, what new roles and capabilities are emerging, and what workforce skills are needed to execute resilience strategies at scale.
This event will take place in the Vancouver Central Library (Alice MacKay Room).
