Help Shape the Symposium!

We’re designing this symposium for the Central Coast climate resilience community, and our program planning process starts with direct input from our region’s diverse and growing community – which includes you.

If you have any interest in speaking, organizing a session, or hosting a side event, please be sure to complete the survey!
