Social Vulnerability and Beacon Hill Resilience Hub Network [Slides]
- National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), Golden, CO (United States)
Improving community resilience to climate change impacts is a core goal of the Beacon Hill stakeholder task force. Developing a network of resilience hubs in the community is a strategy the task force is pursuing to build this resilience. This technical assistance aims to assist the task force in their resilience hub network planning by: identifying hazards that the resilience hubs may address; providing background information on social vulnerability and climate impacts; identifying populations in Beacon Hill who are at risk to disproportionate climate impacts due to social isolation and physical vulnerability characteristics (e.g., lack of transportation or internet); and identifying the potential role of resilience hubs that align with best practices for reducing social vulnerability to climate impacts.
