The Biden-Harris Administration has prioritized response and recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, action on addressing climate change, and centering equity and racial justice. Over the last year, United States federal agencies have shaped budgets and activities to reflect these priorities by proposing new investments, programs, and partnerships to advance climate science, environmental justice, and community resilience. In many ways, these priorities are inextricably linked. This session will feature updates from several U.S. federal agency representatives on meeting these priorities and will offer an opportunity to discuss how these efforts can be addressed together and how they may be sustained in the future.
