People are drawn to
cities as centres of
economic activity,
social connection,
opportunity, and
innovation.

URBAN RESILIENCE
Is the capacity of
individuals, communities,
institutions, businesses,
and systems within a city
to survive, adapt, and
grow no matter what kinds
of chronic
stresses and acute shocks
they experience. Milan, Italy

Shocks and stresses can bring opportunities for
cities to evolve, and in some circumstances,
transform.

100RC AIMS TO
SOLVE TWO
PROBLEMS:
1. Cities are complex,
siloed ecosystems
2. Existing solutions
do not scale or
reach cities
efficiently
22
1. Funding to hire
a
Chief Resilience
Officer (CRO)
2. Support to
Develop a City
Resilience
Strategy
4. Membership in
the 100RC
Network
3. A Platform of
Services to
support strategy
implementation
100RC provides cities 4 types of
support to address these problems
TO HELP COMPLEX URBAN SYSTEMS
ORGANIZE AND INTEGRATE AROUND
RESILIENCE
TO SCALE SOLUTIONS
EFFICIENTLY
23
Who is the Chief Resilience Officer?
The CRO is a catalytic force, transforming the way cities organize themselves to better meet the
challenges of building resilience in the 21st century. The CRO will lead the city’s resilience
building efforts, including:
Working across silos to create and implement a resilience strategy
Serving as a senior advisor to the Mayor or municipal leader
Promoting resilience thinking, and acting as both a local and global thought leader
Coordinating resilience efforts across government and multi-sector stakeholders
Liaising with other CROs, 100RC staff, and service providers via the network and
platform

increasing demand for

Bangalore, India
Average global flood-related

fold to $52 billion by 2050.
40% of urban populations will

Case
Studies
Amman, Jordan
37
Case Study 1: Da Nang, Vietnam
Context
• Wave 1, Resilience Strategy released September 2016 • Major climate challenges (typhoons, flooding, heat waves, drought) • Additional stress of population growth • Goals for socio-economic development through tourism and development of
high-tech industry
38
Case Study 1: Da Nang, Vietnam
Strategy Part 1 - A Peaceful City, a city that removes fear and anxiety from places where
residents live, work and recreate
Actions include: • Assess city’s housing exposure to storms to produce disaster adaptation plans • Integrate climate change mitigation into the housing sector • Expand loan supports for community to build/repair housing resilient to storms • Scale up and integrate technical material when building storm resistant housing • Research and pilot insurance mechanisms for disaster resilient housing
39
Case Study 2: Rio de Janiero, Brazil
Context • Wave 1, Resilience Strategy released May 2016 • Focus on water, infrastructure and people • Climate change impacts is common thread
40
Case Study 2: Rio de Janiero, Brazil
Goal #1 - Better Understand and mitigate impacts of severe
weather and climate change
Actions include: • Monitor climate trends and impacts • Integrate multi-hazard risk maps • Establish Rio de Janiero Panel on Climate Change • Implement portfolio of climate mitigation and adaptation
projects
41
Commonalities • Cities across the globe have recognized the economic importance of addressing the impacts
of climate change • Cities are educating themselves on their exposure and vulnerability through risk modeling
and mapping • Cities recognize the importance of integrated planning when it comes to addressing
climate change as it touches upon physical, social, environmental and economic issues • Cities are piloting adaptation projects that have co-benefits • Cities are exploring innovative mechanisms to fund and finance these projects and to
create incentives for action in advance of a disaster • In most cities, it is not yet clear now this work will be integrated into the building
regulatory system
