Accelerating Adaptation Investments for Resilient Infrastructure

The Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management of the Netherlands Ministerie van Infrastructuur en Waterstaat and the Global Center on Adaptation (GCA) are jointly organizing a session at the International Conference on Disaster Resilient Infrastructure (ICDRI 2022) between governments, development partners and the private sector on accelerating adaptation investments in infrastructure for a climate-resilient future.

This session will draw from practical experience in mainstreaming adaptation into investments in infrastructure at scale, including GCA’s ambitious Africa Adaptation Acceleration Program (AAAP), which serves as a vehicle to mobilize $25bn for adaptation in Africa, and from partner experience in Europe, South Asia, and Small Island and Developing States.
