Session Summary:
We are halfway through the so-called “Decade of Action” on climate. Climate risks are rising, as are the costs of damage and adaptation; though pressing challenges remain, real estate is responding, as are governments and the community sector. The question remains – as our window of adaptation narrows, who will pay, and how? The Resilience Summit closing keynote address examines the future of adaptation finance, investment, and funding in a changed landscape.
