February RNPN Resilience Exchange + Call for Student Pitch Submissions

FEMA Resilience Exchange webinar focused on Rural/Agriculture, free to public.  There is a STUDENT SHOWCASE (and call for submissions) also open to public.


2022 RNPN Student Showcase

The RNPN is excited to announce this year’s “Next Generation of Resilience” Student Showcase. On April 26, four students will share their perspectives focused on this year’s theme: Voices of the Future. 

There are two goals for this event. Established professionals will be exposed to youthful, new ideas on natural hazard resilience and climate change. Students will also have the opportunity for their voices to be heard and network with professionals. All are welcome to attend this event. The audience will include RNPN partners, students, and professionals from across the country. To date, the RNPN has members from over 1,600 organizations.


Call for Student Submissions

STUDENT STORY SUBMISSION

  • Are you an undergraduate or graduate student, 18 years of age or older, or do you know a student who is a great fit for this opportunity? If so, please submit your story here by Tuesday, February 28. Four students will be chosen to share their story at this event.
  • Students can add this resume-building experience to employment and graduate school applications. We strongly encourage students from historically Black colleges and universities or those working with tribal and territorial partners on resilience to apply.
