University of Alberta students in Camrose are helping their community plan for better resilience against climate-related hazards.
Third-year Augustana Campus undergraduates teamed up with the City of Camrose to research and develop strategies in response to a Climate Risk and Vulnerability Assessment (CRVA) recently conducted by the municipality.
Their work will help guide next steps for the municipality as it proactively prepares for the effects of extreme weather on its public services and infrastructure. This project stems from a course called AUIDS 301: Community Partnership Project, one of a series of core courses that are mandatory for all Augustana students.
