Communication Trees in Extreme Weather Response Planning
Communication Trees in Extreme Weather Response Planning
Clear communication networks are essential for coordinating community preparation and response. In climate change response coordination and extreme weather event planning, we call these networks "communication trees." These outline pathways for community members, local organizations, emergency response teams, and Public Health departments to reach the community in a more equitable way.
Through collaborating with different "branches", communication trees create space for community members living and working in different contexts as we work towards equitable communication and response planning.
These networks can be used for community engagement and consultation, collaborative approaches to identifying and operationalizing co-benefits, coordinating climate change mitigation efforts, planning emergency responses, and communicating during extreme weather events in our community.
"The Davidsons and Edenshaws are well known in the art world, their creative traditions passed from generation to generation. In the 19th century, Charles Edenshaw (1839 – 1920) was a famous Haida Gwaii artist known for his wood and argillite carvings, jewellery making, and paintings. He married the highly regarded basket weaver Isabella Edenshaw; their daughter Florence, an artist and memoirist, became matriarch of the Davidson family. Their descendants include dozens of artists whose works feature in galleries and museums around the world. Perhaps the most famous are their great-grandsons, the internationally renowned Robert Davidson, a printmaker, painter, jeweller, and carver best known for his totem poles and masks, and his brother Reg Davidson, who works in argillite, wood, and silkscreens. The two are often credited for leading the contemporary renaissance of Haida art and culture" (Sasvari, 2018).
