Good Neighbors During Slow & Fast Disasters
Thursday, September 18 · 1 - 2:30pm EDT
All of us, at some time or other, need help. Whether we're giving or receiving help, each one of us has something valuable to bring to this world. That's one of the things that connects us as neighbors—in our own way, each one of us is a giver and a receiver." - Fred Rogers
Communities are better able to face disasters when their cultural institutions take an active role in building resilience. In recent years cultural organizations have made an impact responding to fast disasters like fires and floods. It is equally important that they help respond to “slow disasters”, things like gentrification and climate change. This virtual workshop will bring cultural workers together to learn and share about how they have responded to slow and fast disasters, and how we can better support resilient communities.
