On Thursday,  January 14 from 2:30 - 3:30 EST, join IEDC for a webinar on building resilient infrastructure. Problems facing communities today, such as climate change and economic inequality, are so insidious and wide ranging that it can be tough to figure out how communities can address them, and prepare for a resilient future. One tangible approach is addressing the foundation—infrastructure.

In the face of accelerated economic, social and environmental change, global experts suggest that governments and organizations can stimulate economies, and improve community outcomes by investing in high impact projects. As cities and regions continue working toward recovery, leading with infrastructural improvements and strategic funding will offer new opportunities. During a webinar hosted by Australian firm SGS Economics and Planning, panelists Peter Colacino (Infrastructure Australia), Mitra Anderson-Oliver (Department of Jobs, Precincts and Regions), and Kim Bowater (Frontier Advisors) shared lessons from Australia.
