Florida International University

On 16 May join the American Security Project (ASP) and Florida International University (FIU) for an in-person discussion with Dr. Julia Nesheiwat, ASP Consensus for American Security Member and former Florida Chief Resilience Officer, Rep. James Vernon “Jim” Mooney, JR., FL House of Representatives, FIU Professor Dr. Jayantha Obeysekera, and Richard M. Miller, Executive Director of the South Florida Defense Alliance, on military base resilience and the national security implications of climate change on foreign policy. This event is an a continuation of ASP&#x27;s National Climate Security Tour. Interim FIU President Kenneth A. Jessell will open the event and Miami Chief Bay Officer Irela Bague will moderate the discussion.South Florida is home to key U.S. national security assets like Homestead Air Reserve Base which hosts the U.S. Southern Command, Naval Air Station Key West, and Coast Guard Station Miami. Acute shocks from rising seas, flooding, heat waves, and other climate change related threats can reduce military readiness at these installations. Coordinated partnerships between the public and private sectors are key to making bases and adjacent communities resilient to the impacts of climate change.Thank you to our partner Florida International University.Event Details:This in-person event is open to the public. 16 May 2022, 2:00 - 3:30 PM EDTAddress: Florida International University Pavilion, Modesto A.
