This conversation is part of our False v Just Solutions series, which spotlights bold ideas and practical pathways to ensure climate action in Michigan is grounded in equity and justice.

Local climate action is happening across Michigan, but is it genuinely equitable?

Join MiCAN for a powerful virtual event that explores what equity really looks like in municipal climate plans and why it matters for communities on the frontlines of environmental change. Through the lens of cutting-edge research and lived grassroots experience, this gathering will unpack how justice and inclusion must be at the heart of climate strategy at the local level.

Whether you're a local leader, advocate, student, or concerned resident, this conversation will ground you in what equitable climate planning means and offer insights into how we build stronger, more just communities across the state.

What to Expect:

• A presentation from Dr. Elena Lioubimtseva on equity and inclusion in Michigan city climate adaptation plans
