The Housing Nexus: Solutions that Address Both Housing Affordability and Climate Change 

Miami Homes For All and Miami Waterkeeper invite you to discuss the ways that we can simultaneously address our community’s affordable housing and climate resilience needs. Join us as we first learn from our expert speakers and then prioritize together the most impactful solutions. 

Keynote address by Jane Gilbert, Chief Heat Officer of the Miami-Dade County Office of Resilience.

Panel discussion with local climate and housing champions:

• Moderated by Annie Lord, Executive Director of Miami Homes For All

• Robin Bachin, Founding Director of the Office of Civic and Community Engagement at the University of Miami

• Rachel Silverstein, Executive Director and Waterkeeper of Miami Waterkeeper

• Marvin Wilmoth, President of Intersection Ventures

To be followed by a breakout session for prioritization of solutions and consensus building.

These breakfasts are part of our 2024 event series, where we are teaming up with residents, practitioners, and stakeholders to learn about and prioritize the most impactful solutions to address housing and a critical intersectional issue. Housing solutions don't exist in a silo.

The series is intended to bridge the gap not only between issues that are interrelated, but also between residents and decision-makers. Ultimately, this series will propel implementation of the most effective solutions that address the real experiences of residents with housing struggles.

Thanks to our generous sponsors - Knight Foundation, Bradesco, and Coral Rock Development Group - the event is free!
