High-Level Plenary: Scalable Models for Financing Adaptation
Oct 8, 2025 | 8:00 AM - 9:10 AM
Conference Room CC15 & Online
Description
Investing in adaptation presents a largely untapped opportunity to build resilient economies by protecting assets, reducing systemic risk exposure and creating new opportunities. Despite the compelling economic case, investment flows remain insufficient. Overcoming this barrier will require scalable business models, effective project level de-risking mechanisms and supportive policy environments. This session will explore solutions and identify specific actions needed from investors, regulators and governments to unlock the "resilience dividend" and accelerate investment in adaptation.
