Building a resilient future outcome document
The purpose of this document is twofold:
-
To provide a record of the rich discussion that took place during Building a Resilient Future Day; and
-
To increase the momentum behind actions that help build resilience to the impacts that climate change is having on people, communities, economies and ecosystems.
This document responds to the Call for Action: Raising Ambition for Climate Adaptation and Resilience issued at the UN Climate Action Summit (UNCAS) on 23 September. It also builds on the seven initiatives launched at the Summit and the eight action tracks of the Global Commission on Adaptation’s Year of Action launched on 24 September. It is designed to be of practical use to a wide range of stakeholders by:
-
Helping build momentum for a wide set of actions that governments, civil society, communities, grassroots groups, knowledge organisations and businesses are taking;
-
Identifying the main opportunities and challenges on advancing actions for resilience that leave no one behind;
-
Connecting together a community of organisations from the local, regional and global levels actively working on resilience; and
-
Providing a road map to next steps and events.
