It all happened so quickly, but… it’s officially a wrap for this year’s CLaSH Annual Meeting in Boulder, CO! 🏔️ The meeting was jam-packed with plenty of hard-hitting discussions on the multiple facets of cascading hazards.
Furthermore, the breakout and poster sessions sparked plenty of lively discussion. There’s still a lot of work to do in this space, and we’d love to keep growing this community and building on this momentum! 📈
A huge thank-you to everyone who attended—the atmosphere was abuzz with energy! We look forward to (hopefully) seeing all of you—and new faces—next year!
