Please join the CSIS Sustainable Development and Resilience Initiative to discuss the state of support for global climate change adaptation efforts and the emerging resilience economy.
While world leaders continue wrestling to make progress against decarbonization and energy transition goals, climate-vulnerable populations in countries around the world are already grappling with the effects of climate change, including extreme weather and associated shocks and stresses.
As adaptation and resilience efforts continue to make their way toward center stage in climate change discussions, a new resilience-oriented economy is emerging with the development of new investment asset classes, innovative approaches to insurance, and technology-enabled climate information services. While efforts like the President’s Emergency Plan for Adaptation and Resilience (PREPARE), the Race to Resilience and the Sharm El-Sheikh Adaptation Agenda, and the Bridgetown Initiative all propel efforts to boost adaptation, public finance and leadership in this area may be on a trajectory to further mobilize much-needed private sector investments.
This event is an opportunity to better understand the financing and implementation challenges current adaptation efforts are facing, and how governments and international institutions are shifting their approaches to emphasize adaptation- and resilience-oriented investments.
This event is made possible through generous support from the Embassy of Denmark.

It would be nice to be secure in the knowledge that the best and brightest were working on this problem and that profits were put to the side for the good of humanity. What we have seen so far is $trillions spent globally, the cynical moving of emissions from the west to the east, deindustrialization to the extent it is a threat to national security and poorer and the most vulnerable families and individuals paying the last drop of what little they have in artificially inflated energy and fuel bills …. The 'best and brightest' have come up with nothing but less reliable and more expensive energy that makes poor people poorer and a very few rich people richer whilst denuding our nations of key industries, skills and jobs … the result of all this money being spent is negative for people and the environment – global emissions continue to rise …. in the UK alone we could have used that cash to totally eliminate council tax, we could have cheaper energy, more reliable energy and given free energy to the needy, we could have given each household in the UK an electric car, we could have paid down a substantial part of our debt ….. but nooooo windmills and solar panels and more expensive energy is what we got …. why is it every time there is a so-called 'crisis' the people end up getting screwed and the solutions are not greed toward solving the problem but for the governments friends to extract as much as possible for as long as possible …. this culture has to change …. and any scientist who goes on the TV should have to wear badges and declare who gives them money and the government should explain why it only funds one side of an argument where that is the case ……
