SUMMARY:Leveraging Data-Driven Methods and Time-of-Use Data to Evaluate Urban Decarbonization Policies and Streamline Building Energy Audits
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Dr. Abigail Andrews\, Post-Doctoral Associate and NJ BPU Energy Fellow in Edward J. Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy’s Center for Urban Policy Research.  \nIdentifying opportunities to minimize energy use and carbon emissions of buildings is important for urban decarbonization. However\, doing so often necessitates a capital-intensie building energy audit that requires time-intensive on-site inspections. As municipalities across the United States mandate various urban decarbonization policies (e.g.\, benchmarking\, audits\, and building performance standards) there is a growing need for building owners to audit buildings efficiently and at a low cost. Emerging data streams (e.g.\, automated meter infrastructure) allow the evaluation of real time energy use and carbon emissions data. This data not only provides a deeper understanding into building operations but also may provide audit insights and decarbonization opportunities. This seminar will discuss the potential of integrating time-of-use data in urban decarbonization policy and the development of an integrated physics-based model and data-classification method to identify potential inefficiencies in a building using electric meter data. Time-of-use energy data paired with machine learning may streamline urban decarbonization policy by improving the effectiveness and scalability of evaluation processes. \nDr. Andrews received her PhD in Civil and Environmental Engineering from Stanford University at the Urban Informatics Lab. She also holds a MS in Sustainable Design and Construction from Stanford University and a BA in Environmental Policy from Barnard College. Dr. Andrews uses data from building energy policies (e.g.\, benchmarking\, building performance standards\, auditing) to evaluate urban decarbonization potential and to push forward equitable building decarbonization. Currently\, Dr. Andrews is interested in how municipalities can encourage the design and construction of Grid-Interactive Efficient Buildings. \nFor questions Dr. David Coit (coit@soe.rutgers.edu)\, Dr. Aziz Ezzat (aziz.ezzat@rutgers.edu) or Dr. Elin Wicks (elm52@soe.rutgers.edu)

SUMMARY:Navigating Tensions\, Affirming Community--Bringing Dignity to Divided Times
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Donna Hicks is an Associate at the Weatherhead Center for International Affairs at Harvard University and the former Deputy Director of the Program on International Conflict Analysis and Resolution (PICAR). She facilitated dialogues in numerous unofficial diplomatic efforts in the Middle East\, Sri Lanka\, Cambodia\, Colombia\, Cuba\, Libya and Syria. She was a consultant to the BBC in Northern Ireland\, where she co-facilitated a television series\, Facing the Truth\, with Archbishop Desmond Tutu. She has taught courses in conflict resolution at Harvard and Columbia Universities and conducts seminars in the US and abroad on dignity leadership training and on the role dignity plays in resolving conflict. She consults to corporations\, governments\, schools\, churches\, and non-governmental organizations. Her book\, Dignity: It’s Essential Role in Resolving Conflict\, was published by Yale University Press in 2011. Her second book\, Leading with Dignity: How to Create a Culture That Brings Out the Best in People\, was published by Yale University Press in August 2018. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRSVP HERE. \nTo learn more\, visit go.rutgers.edu/meetthemoment\nQuestions?

SUMMARY:Lunch and Learn: Health and Housing Equity Cluster
DESCRIPTION:The Rutgers Housing & Health Equity Cluster would like to invite you to join us for an in-person lunch and learn. All are welcome to bring lunch and eat during the event. \nThe purpose of this event is to introduce attendees to the current activities of the Housing & Health Equity Cluster\, invite attendees to participate in future cluster activities\, including opportunities to workshop and present one’s housing and health equity-related work to Rutgers colleagues\, and to “meet and greet” other Rutgers faculty interested in housing and health equity work. \nWe will also hear presentations by newly hired cluster faculty and have time for Q&A. \nDan Treglia\, PhD\, MPP – Instructor\, Institute for Health\, Health Care Policy\, and Aging Research\n“Leveraging Cross-Sector Partnerships to Address Housing and Healthcare Needs” \nKatherine Marçal\, PhD\, MSW – Assistant Professor\, School of Social Work\n“Housing Insecurity and Maternal Mental Health” \nVeronica Jones\, PhD\, MPH\, CHES – Assistant Professor/Family & Community Sciences Educator III\, Department of Family and Community Health Sciences\n“Project Overview of a Food Access and Transitional Housing Initiative”
