The Resilient Voices event, hosted by Duke RESILE, dedicated to advancing innovative, inclusive and actionable solutions to climate risk, attracted members of campus and the broader community.
Caitlin Reilly, a Community Engagement Fellow at the Nicholas School of the Environment, delivered the keynote address on climate resilience. Her speech was followed by a panel discussion featuring climate and resilience students and professionals. The event also included a pop-up art exhibit by Say the Thing, which focuses on sustainability and creativity using repurposed materials. This exhibit was a collaboration between the Duke University Chapel and the Kenan Institute for Ethics. Research posters and artistic contributions filled the room, enhancing the overall experience and sparking discussion among attendees.
The event was organized by Duke undergraduate students Charlotte Curlin, Sophie Gower, Ariella Maroni, Taylor Moss, and Sarah Sevilla, and graduate student Sarthak Mehrotra, with support from a recent Duke graduate Pooja Lalwani, under RESILE’s Executive Director, William N. Ferris. READ MORE.
