- 10. Achieving common global commitments Sendai Framework for DRR Sustainable Development Goals Paris Agreement on Climate Change 2016 (UNFCCC - COP 26, 2021) The United Nations decade on Ecosystem Restoration began on World Environment Day, 5 June 2021 The New Urban Agenda was adopted at the United Nations Conference on Housing and Sustainable Urban Development (Habitat III) in Quito, Ecuador, on 20 October 2016.
- 12. Policies, actions for resilience and reinforce sustainable development goals.
- 14. Proposed interventions Technical Support & Capacity Development Research and Knowledge Management Advocacy & Partnerships:
- 15. Governance and Policy • Earth System Governance - Leadership – Political will and Change • Integration of disaster and climate resilience concepts • Compliance and Regulatory approaches for disaster resilient infrastructure • Preparation of national CI resilient action plans and budgetary allocations
- 16. Risk Identification & Estimation • Identification of Natural Hazards - Hydro-met, Geological, etc., data analysis - design resilience plans • National risk and resilience assessments across geographies. (Tools / Methods - Historic data - Data Poor | Reliability of data - Monitoring and Management of data – Big Data Scenarios using Models – Animation – simulations – 3d models. Spatial temporal - Remote Sensing / GIS – imageries – LiDAR survey – aerial photography – Drones – Kytoons - Other latest survey methods Sensors – IP cameras – Open-source hardware and software)
- 17. Standards and Certification • Conducting Professional Certificate courses in Critical Infrastructure Resilience • Compliance of country specific standards and codes • Facilitating improvement in the country specific standards and certification as per the scientific standards. • Assessment of the existing infrastructure for resilience to disasters • Knowledge transfer and processes for improving the standards and certifications • CDRI clearinghouse of standards and certification processes to ensure disaster and climate resilience of infrastructure worldwide. • Insurance mechanisms based on certification for Infrastructure
- 18. Capacity Building • Share scientifically accurate knowledge for building resilience of infrastructure systems • Capacity development for Preparedness and post-disaster reconstruction • Awareness and sensitization • Trainings • Exposure • Institution building / Organisation • Networking and engagement • Communications • Online e-courses, MOOCs • Webinars / Meetings / Seminars / Conferences / Conventions • Knowledge management - Publications and Knowledge sharing - generate knowledge products as evidence for policy-making process - Open Data
- 19. Innovation & Emerging Technology • Big data - data mining • Models – Predictions, Projections and scenarios – GCM • Cloud Computing • Social networks for disaster prevention and response – cloud sourced • Machine learning (BBN) • Artificial Intelligence • Augmented reality • Drones • Robotics • GIS, GPS, • Advance materials – • Geoengineering • Internet of things (IOT) Innovation: Wireless power supply (Tesla)
- 20. Recovery & Reconstruction • Recovery, rehabilitation and reconstruction of CI for integrating disaster risk reduction measures into the restoration of physical infrastructure and societal systems. • “Build back better” within infrastructure recovery and reconstruction. Disaster Risk Reduction actors Sustainable Development actors Humanitarian actors Disaster
- 21. Finance • Risk financing strategies • Partnerships (Co-financing models, legal agreements, PPP and CSR frameworks, Convergence with other projects/programs, Bonds, Anticipatory value enhancement) • Implementing a comprehensive disaster risk financing (DRF) framework • Government – National, State and Local Budget allocations • Financing from multilateral agencies – World Bank, ADB, EU, etc
- 22. Community-based Approaches • Community Energy Infrastructure. Distributed systems (e.g. energy mini-grids) can result in more sustainable and resilient infrastructure • Community Water Infrastructure • Community-Based Intelligent Systems for response / recovery
- 23. CI resilience strategies • Strengthen global Sendai Framework implementation • Policy advice and advocacy on issues relating to CI resilience - Improve communication and global advocacy • Increased understanding and awareness of strategic issues and trends; and their impact on the operating environment of critical infrastructure - Conference, Cross-sectoral Interest Groups, workshops and exercises - civil society, academia, government, and private sector • Prioritize specific measures for CI resilience • Implementation/operationalization and enforcement of legal and regulatory provisions – Compliance and incentives – codes, standards – certification. • Sharing Guidance and implementation support plans for CI Resilience - Improve decision making • Respective National legislative and policy priority for integration of CI resilience into national, local and sectoral development planning and budgeting.
- 24. CI resilience strategies • Coordinate with respective stakeholders for effective preparedness, early warning and response • Build/strengthen Institutions for resilience • Institution building and organization - Strengthened organisational performance - Designate CI Resilience mandates, roles and responsibilities. • Engage individuals, organizations, public, private sectors for CI resilience measures to ensure minimum disaster risk • Monitor and review of CI resilience in the member countries • Facilitate open knowledge management - Create Knowledge Hub on Infrastructure Resilience - sharing– share CI resilience information for effective decision making by stakeholders. - CDRI knowledge partnerships
- 25. CI resilience strategies • Promote a broad stakeholder engagement, participation and representation of groups from across society, including women, youth, the impoverished, and the disabled. • Nature based solutions - Ecosystem-based Adaptation - Environmental protection and strengthening ecosystems • Facilitate appropriate financing – organise meetings with stakeholders and finance agencies • Innovative finance investment mechanisms in both public and private-sector for CI resilience measures at all levels • Redirection of current investments to minimize existing and potential CI risks.
