Description
The Towards Equitable Electric Mobility (TEEM) Community of Practice, a collaboration between Forth and the Greenlining Institute, brings together advocates from five states to prioritize racial equity and environmental justice within transportation electrification. This panel will highlight speakers from each state who will share the biggest accomplishments and lessons learned, translating why racial equity is critical in this work, and what success of equitable transportation electrification looks like in action.
