ULI’s Urban Resilience Program is hosting its 2nd annual Resilience Summit, following last year’s engaging and action-provoking one-day event. This exclusive event which will take place virtually on December 2nd, 2020 will unpack the new realities of resilience during a pandemic, while examining the ways in which industry leaders can make informed decisions to further protect communities and investments from future climate risks.

As climate change leads to more frequent and intense weather events, as well as chronic risks like sea level rise, extreme heat, and drought, resilience has become an increasingly important issue for real estate development and land use professionals to understand and address. In 2020, the topic has become ye more urgent given the compounded challenges of COVID-19, and increased recognition of the role of resilience in advancing environmental and racial justice.
