Building resilience where crises intersect
Acute human suffering today, and escalating climate risks ahead, are interconnected crises that threaten the resilience of societies everywhere. Meeting this moment requires both immediate action to support affected communities in the face of urgent need, and longer-term efforts to shift the systems that drive risk and vulnerability.
