Monday, September 29, 1:45pm – 3:00pm
As natural disasters grow in frequency and intensity, housers across the U.S. are being called to lead not just in recovery—but in resilience. Around the world, countries are pioneering innovative, people-centered approaches to disaster response and recovery that offer powerful lessons for U.S. communities. This session, hosted by NAHRO’s International Research and Global Exchange Committee, explores how global strategies can be translated into practical, real-life solutions for local housing agencies. Attendees will leave with a set of globally inspired, locally actionable strategies to strengthen their communities before, during, and after disaster strikes.
