This program explores practical strategies architects can apply to advance public health, safety, and welfare through resilient design, renewable energy integration, ecological site planning, and equitable development.

Join us on April 14 at Sinclair in the Charity Early Auditorium (Room 172), Building 12; doors open at 11:00 AM. Buffet lunch; parking passes included.

Using a municipal-scale solar case study, biodiversity conservation strategies, and resilience-centered architectural leadership frameworks, participants will examine how infrastructure investment, building performance, and site design decisions affect long-term community well-being. The course emphasizes systems-based thinking, climate adaptation, environmental stewardship, and risk mitigation strategies that directly inform architectural planning, design, and decision-making in both public and private sector projects.
