Conference sessions feature planners from around the world who highlight why their respective town, city or planning system will be resilient to climate change. The program seeks to showcase case studies and presentations that provide key insights into how professional planners are thinking about – and practicing – planning around the globe in response to climate change.

Presentations will focus on such questions as:
* What is it about your community or system that makes its approach to mitigating or adapting to climate change particularly effective?
* Why is it effective?
* What ‘lessons learned’ can other planners take from your experience that will guide them in addressing this crucial issue in their own communities?

Note: This conference is conducted completely online as part of efforts to reduce the carbon footprint resulting from presenter/participant travel. Presenting at this conference requires high-speed internet, although there will be a limited number of dial-up registrations available.
