Solving Grand Challenges Month! Urban Environmental Justice in Camden

Listed by Public Engagement

About

Camden is a frontline city, meaning that Camden is a city that is often subject to the worst effects of Climate Change. This is a complicated problem which will need complicated solutions. How do we start? 

We have three events in this program:

First, meet community stakeholders in Camden that are doing this work! Network and learn about the issues facing Camden from the experts!

Second and third, we will be holding two policy jam sessions. Learn about what policy is being considered at the local and state level to help this issue. How would you change it? Can you make it better? And now that you know about the issue, what can you do about it?
