Climate Vulnerability Assessment Community Survey | Pacific Palisades
Community members over the age of 18 who live and/or work in the greater Santa Monica Mountains region—including Pacific Palisades, Malibu, Topanga, Calabasas, Agoura Hills, Westlake Village and Hidden Hills—are invited to complete a Climate Vulnerability Assessment Community Survey, conducted by the Resilient Santa Monica Mountains Project.
The project, which is supported by Resilient Palisades, is a community-based effort led by Malibu Foundation focused on providing a Climate Vulnerability Assessment, community asset inventory and needs-gap analysis for Wildland-Urban Interface communities.
The result of the project will be an actionable report with recommendations to increase the region’s resilience to the shocks and stressors of climate change.
A key detail of the project is implementation of an anonymous CVA Survey, which offers the opportunity to document individual, social and structural capacities, and challenges to living in the local WUI regions.
Individuals who complete the survey have the option to enter a raffle for a chance to win a $100 certificate to a local restaurant. Ten certificates will be raffled after the survey is closed.
The deadline for participation is Wednesday, March 31.
