Resilience investments, transitions and hazards under climate change
Convener: Stefanos Xenarios | Co-conveners: Holger Maier, Russ Wise, Aliya AssubayevaECSECS, Angelos Alamanos
Resilient planning and investments have become essential for ensuring sustainable development and economic stability in the context of escalating climate-induced hazards. The designing of resilient investments are designed to anticipate, withstand, and recover from various shocks, disruptions, and stresses, by reducing vulnerability and enhancing adaptive capacity. This session explores integrating resilience into investment decisions by emphasising the importance of a systems approach that encompasses prevention, preparedness, response, and recovery. It also highlights the critical role of transitions in building resilience, focusing on how adaptive strategies and innovative solutions can facilitate the shift towards more resilient and sustainable communities. By addressing the interconnectedness of hazards, investments, and transitions, the session underscores the necessity of interdisciplinary collaboration and forward-thinking policies to foster long-term resilience and community well-being.
