Enhancing Sustainable Transitions Through an Understanding of Risk

Urban areas play a key role in the transformations required to respond to climate and sustainability challenges. Urban planners, social and physical scientists, business leaders and others all play a part in this process.

Prof. Romero-Lankao will discuss how climate and urbanization contribute to intra- and interurban inequalities in risk, and how urban areas shape risk.

Professor Patricia Romero-Lankao

is a Senior Research Scientist at the Transportation and Hydrogen Systems Center of National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and also at the University of Chicago's Mansueto Institute for Urban Innovation.

Free admission. All are welcome.
