This high-level briefing presents new findings from multi-year research on climate resilience and green economic development across Massachusetts municipalities. The work is based on three surveys conducted in partnership with the Massachusetts Municipal Association (MMA), with valuable input from the Municipal Vulnerability Preparedness (MVP) Program and the Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs (EEA). The event brings together state agencies, municipal leaders, and research partners to discuss workforce development, green job creation, and policy tools to support local implementation.
