As the impacts of disasters and climate change continue to escalate, there is an urgent global need to assess how national infrastructure systems can absorb, respond to, and recover from such events, as well as adapt to an evolving risk landscape.

This event will interrogate how national infrastructure systems can better withstand disasters, adapt to changing risks, and serve communities when they need it most. Panellists will discuss best practices in infrastructure resilience under key themes of Risk Assessment, Governance, Finance, Technology, and Nature-based Infrastructure Solutions.

The themes of this event align with the anticipated second edition of CDRI’s Report on Global Infrastructure Resilience, which is becoming a vital resource for policymakers, practitioners, and researchers worldwide.

Event partners:

• International Coalition for Sustainable Infrastructure (ICSI)

• International Federation of Consulting Engineers (FIDIC)

• Coalition for Disaster Resilient Infrastructure (CDRI)
