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 2022-2023 is exploring the ways that adaptation and resilience planning can drive economic opportunity.
