HOUSING RESILIENCE 2025
On April 10, the FAMU SAET will host a Housing Resilience Roundtable, an engaging forum dedicated to addressing the challenges of urban growth, natural hazards, and housing resilience. Hosted in partnership with the University of Florida’s Florida Institute for Built Environment Resilience (FIBER) and supported by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), this event brings together experts and community leaders to share insights and imagine innovative paths forward. We welcome students, professionals, and community members to be part of this vital conversation, as SAET continues committed to resilient housing futures.
