11:30 PREPARING GOVERNMENTS FOR FUTURE SHOCKS: A ROADMAP TO RESILIENCE

A global pandemic. A major war in Europe. Historic floods in Pakistan, California, and Australia. Dangerous heat waves in China. As these and other far-reaching events demonstrate, “future shocks” aren’t future phenomena. They are happening now.


Join this webinar as we introduce a compendium report, ‘Preparing governments for future shocks: A roadmap to resilience‘, that identifies cross-cutting themes across each of the six key domain areas (emergency preparedness and response, cybersecurity, supply chain, sustainability, workforce skills, and international cooperation) and makes practical, specific, and feasible recommendations that government agencies can take to build a resilient ecosystem in the face of more frequent and more severe global shocks.

Check out the incredible speaker line-up to see who will be joining Chris.
