Keeping History Above Water: Heritage Resilience in a Changing Climate- Recorded Webinar
- Registration Closed
Overview
An overview of the Keeping History Above Water (KHAW) conference and program series, founded by the Newport Restoration Foundation in 2016. The conference series focuses on discussions and conversation around protecting historic resources from the effects of climate change, specifically sea level rise. The conference is held in a different host city each year and brings together local preservationists, engineers, architects, and community members to contribute to the discussion.
Everyone is welcome to attend our webinars but this one is particularly helpful for:
Preservationists, planners, architects, historic homeowners, coastal communities
After this webinar, attendees should be able to:
- Know about the KHAW conference series and consider if it would be a fit for their community
- Identify resources online for historic preservation in relation to sea level rise
Unfortunately, a webinar cannot cover every related topic. The following are not covered:
- Larger climate change considerations (energy efficiency, sustainability, etc.)
- Specific past conference materials/speakers
- Archaeological resources
