Eighth Annual HBCU Climate Change Conference

Eighth Annual HBCU Climate Change Conference

Apr 13, 2022

The Deep South Center for Environmental Justice in collaboration with Texas Southern University will host the in-person Eight Annual HBCU Climate Change Conference April 13 - 16, 2022. The conference has been postponed until the Spring of 2022 due to the surge in the COVID19 Omicron Variant. The purpose of the conference is to bring together HBCU faculty and students, researchers, climate professionals and environmental justice and coastal community residents impacted by toxic facilities and severe weather events related to climate change in order to bridge the gap between theory and the experiential realities of climate change. The conference will address issues related to climate justice, adaptation, community resilience, global climate issues, and other major climate change topics (i.e. transportation, energy sources, carbon emissions, green jobs/green economy, just transition, and community economic development). 
COVID19 VACCINATION IS REQUIRED FOR ALL CONFERENCE PARTICIPANTS.
