SUMMARY:Awakening the Spirit
DESCRIPTION:The Interfaith Environmental Network of Houston invites you to explore spirituality in nature with those of other faiths\, using the documentary The National Parks – America’s Best Idea\, as a source of inspiration. Since their inception\, the national parks have provided places for play\, for rest and for sanctuary. They are places that inspire us with their grandeur and at the same time draw us into an intimate relationship with the natural world. National parks give us time to pause\, to reflect\, to get outside of ourselves and yet also provide space to go deeply within ourselves. In these sacred spaces\, we experience nature and the Divine alike. National parks also afford us the time and space to consider our relationship with nature and how our individual and collective actions have a decided impact on these complex\, wondrous ecosystems that we are sharing. Please join in considering nature & spirituality thru the lens of the national parks with us! For more information about this interfaith environmental study\, please contact Lisa Brenskelle at gcs.lrc@gmail.com.

SUMMARY:HARC People & Nature Speaker Series: Innovative Resilience Financing
DESCRIPTION:“Will we be Ready for the Next Harvey? Innovative Funding Strategies and Opportunities for Community Resilience” \nOn Wednesday\, September 12\, HARC will continue its People & Nature Speaker Series hosting an evening conversation with six national thought leaders on the topic of innovative resilience financing and the role that the public and private sectors can play to develop new community partnerships and diversified resilience funding mechanisms in Greater Houston. \nMore people are moving to the Houston-Galveston region every year while a decade of hurricanes\, floods and historic drought underscores the risks to the region’s future prosperity. Implementing strategies and projects to make Houston economically attractive\, while increasing resilience requires local investment. Public funds from federal\, state and local government source play an important role in rebuilding communities and infrastructure. However\, they are limited in their ability to support innovative resilience strategies to create a more livable\, nature-based and equitable Houston. \nHARC will host an evening “fishbowl dialogue” event with experts in resilience financing\, infrastructure and global and climate change: \n\nShannon Cunniff – Director of Coastal Resilience\, EDF\nJose Peralta – Director\, AON Risk Solutions\nJamie Rubin – CEO\, Meridiam North America\nPeter Schultz\, PhD – Vice President\, ICF\nStacy Swann – CEO and Founding Partner\, Climate Finance Advisors\nShalini Vajjhala\, PhD – Founder & CEO\, re:focus partners\n\nThe event\, to be held at the Museum of Fine Arts Houston\, Brown Auditorium\, will begin at 6:00 pm. Guests are invited to continue the conversation at the post-event reception. The reception\, featuring light appetizers\, beer\, and wine\, will conclude at 8:30. \nPlease contact Events@HARCresearch.org for information on group reservations or for any additional questions you may have.
