Investing in Resilience 2016

The Global Resilience Partnership aims to shift the global approach to development and humanitarian assistance by focusing on root causes and long-term impacts to prevent disasters from trapping vulnerable populations in poverty. The organization emphasizes the necessity of 'smart partnerships' between governments, civil society, and the private sector to build resilience against interrelated challenges including climate change and food insecurity.

• Investing in resilience allows vulnerable populations to better manage chronic stresses and acute disasters, preventing the loss of development gains and avoiding a cycle of deepening poverty.
• Building resilience requires a proactive mindset focused on systematic changes and the coordination of diverse stakeholders, including the private sector, civil society, and government.
• The Paris Agreement, signed by 195 countries, reflects a global recognition that the cost of inaction regarding resilience and climate challenges exceeds the cost of taking action.
