Building Equity into Nature-Based Solutions for Massachusetts Communities 
Thursday, June 23rd, 1:00 PM - 2:30 PM ET

Register via Zoom: https://usepa.zoomgov.com/webinar/register/WN_lPY6gTRcTdyd9KVfDAAIfg

Equity and nature-based solutions are fundamental principles for successful community climate resilience. Green infrastructure and nature-based solutions can protect water quality, build resiliency to heat waves, address flooding and other climate-exacerbated natural hazards, and improve overall quality of life in communities where they are implemented. Equitable community engagement and participation is key to developing nature-based solutions that fully benefit local residents.

This webinar will showcase how Massachusetts programs and organizations are supporting nature-based solutions at the local level and share lessons learned about effective strategies for equitable community engagement and participation in environmental projects.

Speakers will share successful techniques and case studies from environmental improvement and climate resiliency projects in the Blackstone Watershed, the City of Malden, and more!
