The Importance of Infrastructure Resilience for Meeting People’s Needs

Infrastructure systems such as energy, transport, water, wastewater management, digital communication, and others are crucial to meeting people’s needs. It is essential to ensure that infrastructure is sustainable, resilient, and inclusive to achieve the desired social and environmental impacts while also providing long-term economic gains. To achieve these goals, responsive policy and governance, technology and innovation, knowledge exchange and capacity development, and sustainable financing are essential. ICDRI 2023 will focus on designing solutions and pathways to embed and achieve infrastructure resilience through collaboration, innovation, and risk-informed approaches.

Objectives of ICDRI 2023: Building Partnerships and Fostering Knowledge Sharing

The objectives of ICDRI 2023 include providing a platform for member countries to engage and contribute to DRI solution pathways, bringing together infrastructure actors to build partnerships and foster knowledge sharing, and convening DRI stakeholders to enhance collective action on infrastructure resilience. The conference will focus on three thematic pillars: Delivering Resilient Infrastructure – Inclusive and Risk-Informed Systems, Providing Reliable Services through Resilient Infrastructure Assets, and Realizing Finance and Investments for Infrastructure Resilience.

Showcasing Solutions for Disaster Resilient Infrastructure at ICDRI 2023
