Communities are at the
heart of resilient cities
When cities and communities come together, listen to each other and take action to prepare for the future we build equitable and thriving places.
Cities Solve, Cities Deliver and the Resilience For Communities (R4C) program are showcasing solutions enhancing community resilience and creating a ripple effect of inclusive transformation.
When communities have a stake in resilience building, they harness collective power to shape decisions that directly address their needs.
With a whole-of-society approach, we prepare cities and communities and foster a sense of ownership that drives sustained resilience.
Cities know how to turn things around and build a resilient future for billions.
Join Cities Solve, Cities Deliver to inspire urban action and speed up change.
