Summary

Design and Disaster Planning for Rural Communities Part 1 & 2: Disaster planning – whether for wildfires, floods, or hurricanes – can be an overwhelming process, especially for rural communities and small towns where leaders and resources already may be stretched thin. These two webinars, hosted by the Citizens’ Institute on Rural Design, seek to demystify the planning process by bringing together innovative disaster resiliency and response practitioners who center design, arts, and culture in their work. They will share their approaches and some successful projects, along with concrete best practices and key considerations for rural communities to prepare for whatever might happen next.
