Year: 2022

Broward County’s Resilience Dashboard was designed to create a single source of information for resilience tools, programs, and communications county-wide, inclusive of municipal, tribal and county initiatives. The Resilience Dashboard was developed by Broward County staff using GIS technology and ESRI online applications and designed to be user-friendly, interactive, and to empower Broward residents, business owners, and community leaders to take informed action regarding the current and projected impacts of climate change within the County. Since its debut in May 2021, the Resilience Dashboard has attracted several thousand users, with benefits that include improved intergovernmental communication on resilience, enhanced efficiency in performing resilience reviews for project and land use proposals, and increased citizen awareness and engagement on climate resilience. The Resilience Dashboard provides a showcase of planning needs and highlights investments, improving transparency in the nature and scope of action across our communities, and empowering communities to advocate for investments needed to address current and future climate change impacts
