FOURTH NATIONAL CLIMATE ASSESSMENT – TRIBES AND INDIGENOUS PEOPLES

Webinar date/time: Feb. 7; 1pm ET

Duration: 1 hour


What will you learn?

Volume II of the Fourth National Climate Assessment (NCA4) summarizes the
impacts of climate change on the United States, now and in the future. A
team of more than 300 experts guided by a Federal Steering Committee
produced the report, which was extensively reviewed by the public and
experts, including federal agencies and a panel of the National Academy of
Sciences. The report includes a Tribes and Indigenous Peoples chapter
(Chapter 15) as well as regional and sectoral chapters.

     Join us as NCA4 authors share an overview of the recently released
assessment. Hear about how authors integrated indigenous issues and actions
across the entire NCA4 through communicating with regional and sectoral
chapter leads and supporting opportunities for input from tribes. In
addition to the review of NCA4 an interactive mapping application will also
be demonstrated https://biamaps.doi.gov/nca/
