Upcoming Webinars
Climate and Health Adaptation Planning: A Health in All Policies Approach, is the third in a three-part mini-series in the Catalyst Communities Webinar Series focusing on integrating health considerations into climate adaptation planning. Applying the concepts shared in the first two webinars from the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services? Michigan Climate and Health Adaptation Program (MICHAP) - Climate and Health Adaptation Planning Guide for Michigan Communities, this session aims to show how community engagement and support for climate adaptation can be enhanced through use of before and after images of climate adaptations for specific sites in a community.
