Register: Housing Costs, Insurance Rates, and Rebuilding After Disasters

Description

Recent disasters have prompted us to rethink how and where we build, and challenged policymakers to develop strategies to protect assets, minimize costs, reduce community displacement, and prevent future catastrophic losses. Moderated by Doug Parsons, host of the America Adapts podcast, the second briefing in our climate change and human mobility series explores how disasters are affecting the costs of housing, insurance rates, and decisions by communities on whether to move away from at-risk areas.
