To advance knowledge, policy, and practice of urban disaster risk reduction, focusing on megacities and fast-growing metropolises

20 Years of Innovation

With over two decades of experience, we have pioneered the development of effective scientific approaches and analytical tools for Climate and Disaster Risk Management (CDRM). We have worked in some of the most complex cities in the world, to understand risks and define major investments in CDRM that have improved livelihoods, protected lives, upgraded infrastructure, and enhanced the capacity of communities and institutions in managing risks while living in a more productive and safer environment. Our science-based participatory solutions have yielded a legacy of progress and achievements in CDRM and resilience globally.

Through partnerships with public and private institutions,

We have designed Urban Resilience Master Plans for major cities (Mumbai, Dhaka, Pasig, Quezon City, Kathmandu, Makati, etc.) and has a global experience in establishing a roadmap for competency and effectiveness in Emergency Management Performance Standards.
