Zurich Flood Resilience Alliance’s actions to advance adaptation and resilience goals

As climate change impacts are growing around the world, more action is needed to support communities in building their climate and disaster resilience. This includes dramatically increasing resources to local levels to help them adapt. To contribute to these efforts, the Zurich Flood Resilience Alliance is expanding programming to ten more countries and are increasing advocacy efforts to direct more climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction financing to local levels. Donor governments must also meet previous commitments to provide $100 billion in climate finance, dedicate at least half of their climate finance to adaptation goals, and target local levels and the most vulnerable countries currently left behind. The global stock take in 2023 must ensure accountability to these commitments.
