Condensations - Designing in Water
Exploring the value of design in issues of water safety, access, quality, and
delivery in urban areas
Friday, March 24th
Three consecutive panel discussions, 1 to 6 PM
Higgins Hall Auditorium (61 St. James Place)
Pratt Institute's Brooklyn Campus
Free & open to the public, please register here.
As water levels rise around many of our world's growing cities, the threats to our homes, roads, energy systems, water quality - virtually every aspect of our built environment - are also rising exponentially. We need to focus our research & policy on climate adaptation.
Please join Pratt Institute, along with Rebuild by Design & Water Leverage, for three consecutive panel discussions focused on design strategies & solutions for these urgent water-focused concerns on a local & global level, & how we can & must move from mitigation to adaptation. This panel series is a Side Event to the United Nations Official Water Conference. The panels will include brief presentations from a panel of experts, as well as intensive audience participation. The day will end with a closing reception.
Condensations is organized by Pratt Institute's Office of Research & Strategic Partnerships in concert with our co-hosts, academic & industry partners & is implemented by the Center for Climate Adaptation, at Pratt's Research Yard. The event is one of Pratt Institute's new Design Equity initiative; a provocative series of discussions & events dedicated to shaping a sustainable & just future in New York City (and beyond).
