Arrowhead Redux: Resilient Cities and Regions

Here at the Lewis Center, we’re still basking in the positive and thought-provoking glow of the 2014 Arrowhead Symposium, which this year took a deep dive into the topic of Resilient Cities and Regions. It was the 24th annual installment of the Arrowhead Symposium, which is always an intimate, invite-only look at some topic within the broader theme of the transportation-land use-environment connection.

This year, we thought we’d try to bring some of the magic down from the mountain. We put together six stories to offer a glimpse of what this year’s symposium was like:

1. What are Resilient Cities, and Why Should We Care?

2. Bill Fulton: Planning for Resilience

3. Soft Infrastructure and the Vulnerability and Adaptive Capacity of Cities and Regions

4. Shaken, but not Stirred (to Action)?

5. Ray Quay: Anticipatory Governance, a Framework for Resilience Planning

6. Closing Comments from Director Brian Taylor

We’re quite grateful to all of our sponsors, speakers, and attendees for making it such a good experience.
