Scaling-up Comprehensive Risk Management for Climate and Disaster Resilience

Climate change amplifies risk, and if not properly managed, leads to disasters. Climate action, hence, must be anchored on understanding of risk across scales and governance levels. The session will explore means to operationalize comprehensive climate and disaster risk management through concrete examples of development policies, disaster risk reduction strategies, National Adaptation Plans and financing modalities.
