2023-2024: Connecting Disciplines
Upcoming Event
Climate Preparedness in the Healthcare Sector
Join us on November 30 at 12 pm ET / 9 am PT for a presentation and discussion with Dr. Catharina Giudice of the Center for Climate, Health, and the Global Environment, Harvard University.
Climate-change driven extreme weather has widespread implications for community health and the practice of medicine. This session will provide an overview of climate impacts and current discussions in preparedness in the healthcare sector, including individual and community preparedness, resilience of physical infrastructure of hospitals and health centers, and emergency care network resilience. Join us to learn more about how medical practitioners and institutions are approaching these challenges and to discuss opportunities for addressing health and medical related climate risks at an individual level.

Mission
Community Adaptation Learning Exchange (CALE) is a peer-learning network that convenes conversations about climate adaptation practice to facilitate knowledge development and support member connections.
CALE Sessions
CALE’s bi-monthly sessions are focused on elevating the experience and perspectives of all those working to advance community responses to climate change and learning from successes and failures working to support sustainable, equitable, and resilient communities.
The sessions focus on exploring adaptation topics and projects through a set of unifying questions and considerations, asking all invited speakers: to unpack underlying assumptions, to elaborate goals and priorities, to address the role of racial equity and inclusion, and to revisit failures / opportunities for improvement. CALE programming is organized around a yearly thematic focus.
CALE's theme for 2023-2024 is exploring how climate adaptation is becoming part of community-based work in unexpected ways across sectors.
