SCDRP's 9th Annual Meeting will be held in Wilmington, North Carolina, on February 4-5, 2025. SCDRP Annual Meetings are different from the typical conference. We cross geographic and political boundaries to bring together the brightest, most innovative leaders in the natural hazard resilience, climate adaptation, and disaster recovery fields in the U.S. Southeast and Caribbean. As we select speakers and topics and design educational field trips and networking events, we incorporate into the planning process a deep commitment to our core values of collaboration, learning, equity, and support. Capped at 125 attendees, the meeting provides the opportunity for close networking with top organizations working to make a difference in the disaster resilience, recovery, and adaptation disciplines.
