Months ago I joined a #resilience journey with @UNDRR and @bcn_ajuntament teams. The heartbeat: #SMEs, the 90% we overlook. Small heroes reopen after floods/blackouts, often without support. We’re bringing simple #BCPs, insurance & right tech. 🎥 Retail done tourism next. #DRR

A pleasure to interview Sébastien Maire from @Fr_VilleDurable on resilient cities for the @cricproject. Exciting to explore other visions on #UrbanResilience strategies and low/ tech solutions. Big thanks to @cricproject and @DiabYoussef4 for making this possible!

💧 Join the #WaterWiseEU campaign. 90% of disasters are weather-water-related, costing the EU €170B yearly. River floods hit harder, affecting millions. Work with nature: reflood wetlands, plant trees, restore floodplains. How is your city planning for floods? 🌊 #ClimateAction

"Si les grandes compagnies sont aussi compétitives et innovantes que dans les pays voisins, les petites et très petites entreprises qui constituent l'essentiel du tissu économique du pays restent en retrait." Pourquoi ? Demander au Gouv. et grands groupes

Participating at 50°C simulation in Paris was enlightening. Urban operators and city officials worked together to make #CityResilienceStrategy evolve. After the outdoor exercise, the crisis committee played out the effects of a massive heatwave to make sure they are all prepared.
