Attendees will then share their local experience and insights to inform future statewide wildfire resilience planning, programs, and research.<\/p>\n
El objetivo central de esta serie de talleres es crear un foro para el intercambio de informaci\u00f3n entre cient\u00edficos, supervivientes de incendios forestales, desplazados por desastres clim\u00e1ticos, responsables gubernamentales, organizaciones sin \u00e1nimo de lucro, propietarios de empresas y entidades de colaboraci\u00f3n para la recuperaci\u00f3n econ\u00f3mica, con el fin de conocer mejor c\u00f3mo es enfrentarse a estos incendios forestales extremos a medida que su ritmo e intensidad aumentan con el cambio clim\u00e1tico, compartir t\u00e1cticas de refuerzo de la resiliencia y determinar qu\u00e9 investigaciones deben comprenderse y aplicarse para que las comunidades puedan recuperarse.<\/p>\n
Please come with questions and be ready to take in some basic data and research on the way communities can and have come together to mitigate the risk of what they might face next. You\u2019ll get tactics you can use in your community, connections to national experts on the topic, and help set in motion additional pre-disaster policies and programs to support your local community and economy.<\/p>\n

\nLucy Jones<\/strong> is the founder and Chief Scientist of the Dr. Lucy Jones Center for Science and Society, with a mission to foster the understanding and application of scientific information in the creation of more resilient communities, and a Research Associate at the Seismological Laboratory of Caltech.<\/p>\nDr. Alex Greer<\/strong> is an Associate Professor in the Emergency Management and Homeland Security Department at the University at Albany. His research interests include hazard adjustments, relocation decision-making processes, and organizational culture.<\/p>\nDr. Alexandra Syphard<\/strong> is a senior research ecologist who studies the causes and consequences of landscape change, especially wildfire, vegetation dynamics, land use change, invasive species, and climate change. She also investigates structure loss and community vulnerability to wildfire, identifying management decisions that produce co-benefits for human and ecological well-being.<\/p>\nDr. Susan Cutter<\/strong> is a Carolina Distinguished Professor of Geography at the University of South Carolina and director of the Hazards Vulnerability and Resilience Institute. Her primary research interests are in the area of disaster vulnerability\/resilience science and how vulnerability and resilience are measured, monitored, and assessed.<\/p>\nThis will be a unique opportunity to partner with scientists and those of us that have experience the devastation of wildfires in our community to discuss how to be better prepared for future disasters.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
