Rush Creek Lodge, Yosemite.

In a year of climatic swings, the Localizing CA Waters Conference will map, showcase and provide networking space to connect communities to resilient, collaborative, watershed approaches.   Presentations and workshops will focus on expanding scales from parcel level to regional scale, to advance and accelerate place-based equity.  Sessions will include a focus on:  

• Focus on advancing place-based equity through regional resilience workshops and sharing-updates on local approaches.

• Cultivating current thinking on watershed system responses to climatic swings, including through collaborative data (local to regional scale), access to data, and local opportunities to reach regional resilience. 

• Showcasing of case studies and workshops to map on-ground local approaches for safe drinking water, flood, fire, drought, extreme heat, and habitat that add up to healthy resilient watershed communities.
