| | | CAF14-126 | | Financing Climate Adaptation: Public-Private Cross-Pollination Speakers: Shalini, Vajjhala, Ph.D., Founder and CEO, Re:Focus Partners; Cisco DeVries, CEO, Renewable Funding; Stephanie Rico, Vice President, Environmental Affairs, Wells Fargo, Government and Community Relations; Rebecca Foster, Advisor, San Francisco Mayor’s Office of Civic Innovation; MODERATOR: Aleka Seville, Director, Advisory Services, Four Twenty Seven, Inc. Financing adaptation efforts – from local community outreach to major infrastructure improvements – calls for creative sources of funding to stretch local governments’ limited budgets. This roundtable discussion focuses on innovative ways to involve the private sector in solving public problems, building on existing initiatives in energy, climate and city planning. We hear from thought leaders whose efforts straddle the public and private sectors, and discuss whether and how these different forms of public-private partnerships (PPPs) could be repurposed to help fund climate adaptation efforts at the local level. | | MP3 | | $10.00 | | $10.00 | |
