SUMMARY:Building a fire adapted community: Understanding our role in living with fire
DESCRIPTION:Webinar registration. \nFire is part of our past\, present\, and future\, and every community has a role in shaping how we live with it. This one-hour webinar introduces the idea of Fire Adapted Culture\, a people-centered way of understanding and interacting with wildfire that reaches beyond traditional fire management approaches. Building a Fire Adapted Culture emphasizes relationships\, shared values\, and local knowledge that make community resilience possible.
