CEC Webinar: Building Community Resilience in North America

November 12 @ 1:30 pm - 3:00 pm
Join Our Building Community Resilience in North America Webinar Series!
Join the Commission for Environmental Cooperation, experts and community leaders from Canada, Mexico and the United States, for a three-part webinar series to discuss pressing environmental challenges in the region!

Communities across North America are facing increasingly complex environmental challenges that demand collective understanding and action. From the far-reaching impacts of wildfires and the toxic compounds they release, to the hidden dangers of mercury in cosmetics and the shifting seasonal patterns that affect livelihoods, cultural practices and infrastructure, these issues transcend borders and require collaborative solutions.

Discussions in this webinar series will explore how these challenges affect diverse communities and highlight strategies to strengthen resilience at the local, national and regional levels. Participants in these conversations will see how North American communities are adapting, innovating and working together to build a healthier, more resilient future!
