about

The workshop and conference Resilience in Urban Environments toward SDG Sustainable Cities, aims to bring together researchers from the University of Florida and the Universidad of Cuenca into an initial workshop to discuss strategies to address sustainability challenges in medium and small cities and to plan an international conference, which will focus on climate change mitigation and adaptation. In February 2024, we will conduct Workshops and target meetings with UF and U Cuenca researchers. In July 2024, we will organize an International Conference to discuss the subject of Resilience in Urban Environments toward SDG Sustainable Cities. These events aim to align ongoing discussions on sustainability and resilience in urban areas and empower practitioners, researchers, policymakers, and others in their collaborative efforts.
