Infos

This report explains how rising climate and disaster risk is set to increase the vulnerability of Asia and the Pacific region's urban poor and identifies how to engender systemic change to strengthen their resilience. It stresses the need for targeted actions to tackle the underlying drivers of vulnerability and to make the urban poor central to decision-making. It shows why households, neighborhoods, and cities are key entry points for the investment and intervention needed to help cut risk and improve adaptation. Urging stronger community-level infrastructure, social protection, and urban planning, it underscores how governments can create enabling environments that help build a more resilient future for the region's urban poor.
