Rubenstein Fellow\nMetropolitan Policy Program\, Brookings[/vc_column_text][mk_toggle title=”Read Annelies’ Bio” el_class=”bio-toggle”]Annelies Goger\, Ph.D. is an economic geographer focused on developing innovative policy solutions to address rising inequality and increase access to economic opportunity. Dr. Goger’s recent work investigates how the COVID-19 pandemic has affected the hospitality industry in the U.S.\, how to fix the unemployment insurance safety net\, and how to increase access to quality jobs and investments in talent to foster ongoing learning and innovation. She is an expert in U.S. workforce development policy\, global supply chains\, and inclusive economic development. Dr. Goger’s work has been prominently featured in CNN\, NPR\, Washington Monthly\, the Hill\, and a number of local outlets and podcasts. \nDr. Goger’s work has challenged the dominant “skills gap” narrative\, arguing that building stronger education and labor market institutions and making long-term investments in talent development are the key to unleashing regional innovation and addressing racial and gender inequities in the labor market. Her vision is to build an education and training ecosystem with multiple paths to a quality job that is designed around the needs of a diverse set of learners\, workers\, and employers. Dr. Goger has outlined state policy frameworks to scale earn-and-learn opportunities such as apprenticeship and other forms of employer-based training. \nDr. Goger’s current research focuses on digital transformation in labor and education data systems\, the employer role in talent development\, state credentialing policies that recognize diverse forms of learning\, and closing the opportunity gap for displaced hospitality workers and returning citizens. She is a member of the Better Employment and Training Strategies task force\, a coalition of more than 40 workforce experts and practitioners that focuses on modernizing America’s outdated and inequitable workforce policies. \nBefore coming to Brookings\, Dr. Goger spent more than 10 years conducting field research to evaluate American workforce development and food security programs at Social Policy Research Associates and IMPAQ International. Her doctoral research focused on the links between global supply chains\, ethical trade initiatives\, production processes\, and inclusive growth. Dr. Goger was a Fulbright scholar in Sri Lanka and Social Science Research Council Fellow. She has published in peer-reviewed journals and edited a book of case studies on values-based food procurement called Institutions as conscious food consumers: leveraging purchasing power for systems change with Dr. Sapna Thottathil (Elsevier\, 2019).[/mk_toggle][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″ offset=”vc_col-md-2 vc_col-sm-offset-0 vc_col-xs-offset-3 vc_col-xs-6″][vc_single_image image=”17795″ img_size=”170×170″ alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow”][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”3/4″ offset=”vc_col-md-10 vc_col-sm-offset-0 vc_col-xs-offset-2 vc_col-xs-8″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1624836372143{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]Jennifer Jean Kropke\nDirector of Energy Jobs\nU.S. Department of Energy[/vc_column_text][mk_toggle title=”Read Jennifer’s Bio” el_class=”bio-toggle”]\nJennifer Jean Kropke served as the first Director of Workforce and Environmental Engagement for IBEW Local Union 11 and the National Electrical Contractors’ Association-Los Angeles’ Labor Management Cooperation Committee.

SUMMARY:EBC's Site Remediation and Redevelopment Webinar
DESCRIPTION:EBC Site Remediation and Redevelopment Webinar: Beneficial Use Determinations – An Effective (but underutilized?) Tool \nThis EBC Site Remediation and Redevelopment webinar will focus on Beneficial Use Determinations (BUD) and their efficacy and use in spurring redevelopment\, minimizing waste\, and improving environmental conditions. \nMany redevelopment projects generate waste streams that require careful management\, processing\, and potentially costly disposal. The BUD risk assessment guidance provides a framework for evaluating potential risk\, placement or processing of secondary materials\, and material reuse. This webinar will focus on the process\, risk assessment methods and standards (are they too low/restrictive?)\, project cost savings\, and successful case studies where the use of BUDs was critical to redevelopment and project success. The program will also include presentations from the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MASS DEP) (INVITED) on their perspective of the BUD process and use. \nA robust panel discussion with the audience will conclude the webinar.
