The Virtual South Asia Resilience Hub, organized by ICCCAD will continue to lead the Race to Resilience process for the South Asia region in 2024. It is a dynamic platform dedicated to addressing the increasing impacts of climate change by connecting a diverse range of stakeholders—including civil society, businesses, investors, cities, local grassroots organizations and academic institutions.
This year, the Regional Hub spotlights resilience and adaptation, with a focus on ramping up action and investment, aligning with the 2030 Agenda, and advancing the Race to Resilience campaign. The Hub highlights innovative initiatives emerging from communities across South Asia. Information on our previous will be found here: South Asia Regional Resilience Hub.
By placing local constituencies at the center of discussions, the Regional Hub aims to empower frontline leaders to share their adaptation strategies and engage with external knowledge. The Regional Hub provides the virtual platforms, facilitating engagement and knowledge-sharing to strengthen resilience efforts across the region.
