Invest Appalachia recently released a first-of-its-kind report focusing on the realities Appalachian communities face due to climate change. It's not just a must-read, it's a clarion call for planning and action. You can access the report here.
Following the release of this report, and a series of member-only webinars on climate resiliency, migration, and it’s impact on art, culture, and place-making, the Appalachia Funders Network is thrilled to open the conversation to the general public. Join us for an interactive virtual discussion about the particular challenges Appalachia faces due to shifts in the climate and our region’s unique role in finding solutions.
Speakers Include:
Andrew Crosson, Chief Executive Officer, Invest Appalachia
Baylen Campbell, Director of Community Impact, Invest Appalachia
