Now more than ever, we must recognize the deep interconnectivity of our existence.

Architects and allied professionals have an important role to play in stewarding environmental well-being at local, national, and global scales. How do we help foster climate resiliency for communities and ecosystems in the face of rapid environmental change? Who should we be learning from, collaborating with, and centering in this work as we consider the impacts? And what would it mean to design not just for humans, but for entire ecosystems?

This year’s climate summit will explore the application of co-existence and biodiversity frameworks to demonstrate how the built environment can facilitate whole ecosystem health. Through a full day of thought-provoking and dynamic sessions, we’ll explore actionable strategies to advance sustainability and actively support resilient, interconnected systems—now and into the future.
