BUILDING URBAN RESILIENCE ACROSS THE PACIFIC: A Collaborative Symposium, date to be announced
University of Washington

This inaugural symposium for the Center for Asian Urbanism at the University of Washington will view urban resilience in Asia-Pacific through a specific lens of hydrologic constraints to future growth and development. Specifically, the symposium will focus on pre-emptive and adaptive urban strategies given the uncertainties associated with water security in urbanizing regions, including: issues of availability and quality of consumptive water; impacts on food systems; and, rising sea levels and the increasing frequency and magnitude of floods and tidal surges. To address such wide range of issues, the symposium will bring a diverse group of scholars and practitioners together to inspire and facilitate creative and fundable long-term partnerships in both research and action.
