During the Mandela Fellows six-week visit to Boise State University over the summer, the Hazard and Climate Resilience Institute demonstrated their work through their “Building Resilient Communities” workshop.
The workshop aims to highlight the various topic areas of community resilience, as well as demonstrating a few assessment tools for participants to keep and use with their home communities.
