Help Build a JHU Climate Dashboard

Save the date! Please join us 11 am-1 pm Thursday, February 20 at the Carey Business School to envision a new climate dashboard tool for Johns Hopkins affiliates.

Join a human-centered design workshop where faculty and staff chart a course for positive change. Lunch will be served.

The dashboard will:
