We’ll hear directly from Omar on his experience in advising universities to create long-term economic strategies and look at what the future holds for these institutions and their cities.

People and organizations who have the capacity to prepare for and adapt to changing circumstances are better equipped to make it through tough times, and are even able to create new opportunities for success. What is adaptive capacity, and how can we harness it to come back better and stronger? On Episode 12 of “DISCOVERY,” join us for a conversation with John Jarboe, founder and artistic director of The Bearded Ladies Cabaret in Philadelphia. We’ll hear how the Beards are building their adaptive capacity and finding ways to flourish. Hosted by Priya Sircar | Director/Arts at Knight Foundation RSVP Copyright © 2020 John S. and James L.
