SAME Environmental COI Webinar: Engineering With Nature and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
About This Webinar
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Engineering With Nature® (EWN) initiative enables more sustainable delivery of economic, social, and environmental benefits associated with infrastructure. Triple-win outcomes are achieved throughout EWN by systematically integrating social, environmental, and economic considerations at every phase of a project. The results are innovative and resilient solutions that are more socially acceptable, viable, equitable, and, ultimately, more sustainable. Tune in to hear from two of USACE’s leading experts to learn more about the exciting future of EWN.
