Last week some of the PLACE team was fortunate to participate in a 2 day workshop for the Community Resilience Center at The Water Institute.

We learned about the outstanding work The Center has done over the past few years, then took a deep dive into 4 focus areas: resilience foundations, migration, insurance and flooding. Our team finished out the workshop with a session to prioritize The Center’s future work.

We are so grateful to work with colleagues doing such outstanding work throughout the Gulf! 🌾🌊
