Event Details
The Southern Climate Impacts Planning Program is hosting the Hazard Resilient Buildings Workshop with representatives and speakers from the home building, insurance, and real estate industries in central Oklahoma. These sectors play a pivotal role in shaping the built environment and managing risk, making them key partners in advancing community resilience. The goal of this one-day workshop is to raise awareness of the weather and climate hazards that most impact these industries, and to showcase best practices for strengthening homes and buildings. It also aims to identify what resources are needed to make informed decisions that lead to increased resilience.
SCIPP’s mission centers around building and encouraging resilience across the south-central United States. With the rising frequency and cost of weather and climate hazards in central Oklahoma, proactive planning and resilient construction are more critical than ever. By equipping industry professionals with the tools and knowledge to construct more hazard resistant structures, the workshop ultimately benefits homeowners and communities across the region. If well received, this model could be expanded in scope to serve the broader SCIPP region.
Registration is free and lunch is provided. Space is limited.
