What is this webinar about?
The National Infrastructure Commission’s second national infrastructure assessment (NIA2) has highlighted the importance of infrastructure resilience to increasing exposure from external shocks like climate change.
But there's still a danger we under-invest in resilience unless service standards are agreed and set.
On 23 September we're running a free webinar to help the UK built environment sector consider the nature of the risk to infrastructure assets from climate impacts; what BSI is doing on climate resilience; and what may still needed.
The webinar will cover:
- the issues around climate resilience of infrastructure – including climate modelling and engagement with industry;
- climate adaption and climate resilient action – including adaptation pathways and resilience and risk management;
- what needs to be done to deliver a resilient future; and
- the role BSI can play in infrastructure resilience.
