MRRI Co-Director Terry Doss and Sarah Dougherty, Community Engagement Manager for Invenergy, participated earlier this week in the Heather M. Morgan Climate Risk Adaptation Lecture as part of the 2023 Waterfront Alliance conference. Now in its second year, the Heather Morgan Lecture Series features a personal conversation between two extraordinary women in the field – one a veteran trailblazer and the other an up-and-coming climate design expert. Terry and Sarah’s dialogue showcased the values, skills and insights of Heather Morgan, a noted climate risk adaptation expert, a force of nature, and someone who left us far too soon.
