SUMMARY:2026 South Central Climate Resilience Forum (SCCRF)
DESCRIPTION:We are excited to announce that the 2026 South Central Climate Resilience Forum (SCCRF) will be held from April 15th-17th\, 2026\, in San Antonio\, TX. Building on the momentum from the 2024 SCCRF\, the Forum is focused on fostering meaningful dialogue on climate resilience and adaptation across Arkansas\, Kansas\, Louisiana\, Oklahoma\, and Texas. It will bring together representatives from non-profit organizations\, all levels of government\, Tribal Nations\, community groups\, the private sector\, and academia from across the region. The goals of the event are to improve understanding of the climate-related challenges facing the region and increase awareness of work being done to enhance the resilience of the region. The program will include presentations\, symposiums\, and workshops about resources\, research\, tools\, knowledge\, and experiences relating to climate resilience and opportunities for information exchange and networking. \nMore is happening than one might think! Don’t miss out on this opportunity to hear about and/or demonstrate how your community or state is building resilience to climate-related challenges. \nThe Call for Presentations is coming soon\, and registration opens later this year. Sponsorship opportunities are available now! \nPlease share with anyone you think may be interested\, and we can’t wait to see you in San Antonio in 2026! \nOn behalf of the 2026 SCCRF Planning Committee
