Resilient design is emerging as the design challenge for our age. Practitioners in the built environment must re-imagine our built infrastructure and social fabric to be adaptable to changing conditions, be they sudden abrupt changes such as natural disaster or chronic stresses such as endemic crime and poverty in addition to carbon drawdown strategies.
The Chicago Thrives! Resilience Symposium will serve to enhance the work the City of Chicago is currently undertaking and will provide an opportunity for a multiple disciplines in our region to meet and exchange ideas and best practices through lecture, panel discussion, and interactive workshops.
