Ensuring Economic and Financial Stability through resilient systems

10 November @ 2:00 pm 3:00 pm Brazil

Climate change is reshaping the foundations of our financial and economic systems. Consequently, solutions for overcoming these increasingly frequent disruptions to societies and economies will depend on effective and integrated systems-thinking approaches. This event will identify systemic solutions for reducing financial instability by identifying both hazards and resilience as core components of economic planning and investment frameworks. This high-level dialogue will also explore how investments in water resilience can serve as a foundational strategy for economic security, adaptation, and transformative development.
