CRV generously sponsored the inaugural Climate Action Forum hosted by the American Society of Landscape Architects, New York Chapter. Professor Yana Kucheva presented her work on housing equity and climate justice and participated in a panel discussion alongside representatives from the Mayor's Office of Climate and Environmental Justice and WeACT, an environmental justice group.

Professor Zihao Zhang serves as the co-chair of the ASLA NY Chapter's Climate Action Committee, which organized this forum. The primary goal of the forum was to establish a platform for diverse stakeholders, including city agencies, the Mayor's Office, NGO groups, academics, and practitioners, to exchange the latest policies, research findings, and best practices related to climate adaptation.
