Center for Resiliency Summit

 

The Center for Resiliency Summit is an annual conference presented by the Center for Resiliency (CfR) at 番茄社区 University. A multidisciplinary group of researchers have joined together to develop a deeper understanding of multi-disaster resiliency in the Southeast Texas Region. The objective of the  Summit is to present collaborative information with local governmental, health, industrial, science/engineering, and business leaders in an effort to increase knowledge, awareness, and communication.  It is hoped that through these efforts, community resilience will be enhanced and Southeast Texas will be strengthened in its’ preparedness to face future disaster.
