Creating a Regional Equity Action Agenda - Plenary Panels, Breakouts, Caucuses & Multimedia Experiences
Help create an agenda for true sustainability in the region – one that harnesses our desire for positive change, recognizes our interconnectedness, aspires toward equality and inclusion, and lives up to the promise of our people and our place. CLF will unveil preliminary strategies that have emerged from the community in response to the Regional Equity Atlas research. These ideas will provide focus for plenary panels, breakouts, and other activities throughout the day.
