| | | CAF14-122 | | Building Regional Collaboratives to Accelerate Adaptation Success Speakers: Larry Greene, Air Pollution Control Officer, Sacramento Metropolitan Air Quality Management District; Cody Hooven, Senior Environmental Specialist, Environmental and Land Use Management, Port of San Diego; Krista Kline, Managing Director, Los Angeles Regional Collaborative for Climate Action & Sustainability; Bruce Riordan, Climate Strategist, Bay Area Joint Policy Council; Michael McCormick, Senior Planner, Governor’s Office of Planning and Research; MODERATOR: Jonathan Parfrey, Executive Director, Climate Resolve Addressing climate change at the regional level is one way to minimize risk and maximize resilience opportunities. For an effective regional response, all interested stakeholders must work more closely together than ever before. However, there are significant barriers to coordinating across regions. One emerging approach is found in the formation of “regional adaptation collaboratives.” This session discusses the development, implementation, and lessons learned from the Alliance of Regional Collaboratives for Climate Adaptation (ARCCA), an organization consisting of four regional adaptation collaboratives in San Diego, Los Angeles, the Bay Area and Sacramento. This session discusses (1) a framework for forming a regional adaptation network, (2) guidance for structuring a regional collaborative, and (3) insights into effective mechanisms for engaging stakeholders in adoption of these new collaborative relationships. | | MP3 | | $10.00 | | $10.00 | |
