Join us in New Orleans from Wednesday, May 17th to Friday May 19th at the Royal Sonesta Hotel for two days of inspirational speakers, field visits, engaging programming, and opportunities to connect with your peers in environmental health and justice philanthropy.
Our time in NOLA will ground us in the realities communities face in the Gulf and across the South. In Louisiana and Texas, where 80% of the nation’s petrochemical supply is produced, communities continue to reckon with toxic health threats, acute climate vulnerability, and the consequences of a long history of racist policymaking. At the same time, the South offers deep, inspirational histories of racial and environmental justice organizing, which serve as powerful models for work in other parts of the country.
