Colorado Resiliency Office | Website and resilience Prioritization
Lotus worked with a team of experts on behalf of the Colorado Resiliency Office to create an interactive website that helps communities understand the shocks and stresses they face, make connections across sectors to leverage resources and ideas, develop solutions that address multiple challenges, and build adaptability and preparedness into plans. As part of the project, the team created multiple toolkits and resources for communities to help proactively prepare for and adapt for changing conditions. Also, best practices on how to meet immediate, short-term, and long-term recovery needs in the aftermath of a disaster.
In 2024 Lotus developed a list of local government adaptation and resilience actions and prioritized actions based on the relevance and impact for Colorado, with documented justifications. Lotus also provided guidance for the top-prioritized adaptation and resilience actions. Lotus synthesized input and feedback from multiple stakeholders as well as other state programs to develop recommendations for next steps based on research and outreach.
“I had the pleasure of recently working with Lotus Sustainability on a project to develop a new website and tools for Colorado communities to plan for long-term resiliency and recovery. Lotus’ expertise and leadership ensured that our final products were both technically sound and useful to our audience. Throughout the project, Lotus remained flexible and adapted to our changing needs.”
