As significant degree of climate change is inevitable, the topic of climate resilience has been moving up the agenda across all sectors, driven by increasing stakeholder awareness and policy developments. As organisations look to take action to preserve or enhance value in the future, they have to navigate and address a complex web of physical as well as regulatory and other climate-related and resilience risks.

In this webinar, Anna Tuddenham and Charles Van Tuyckom explore how organisations can address relevant climate risks and foster resilience through the development of relevant and tailored principles and strategies, following a risk- and opportunity-based approach. They will also reflect on what it takes to successfully implement a climate resilience strategy, from creating sensible roadmaps to setting up the right governance structure.
