Mitigation efforts have made communities safer from disasters, but there is still much to do and learn. Plans and projects can create enviable resilience, but they also sometimes miss entire neighborhoods, groups of people, and looming threats. This panel will explore ways to assess mitigation in built and social environments that fully recognize the scope of the hazards faced. Panelists will discuss improving building design and construction, centering marginalized groups in adaptation, learning the true value of mitigation for communities, and identifying how to plan when you have no governance at all.
