The Global Infrastructure Resilience Report is CDRI’s flagship research initiative to advance infrastructure resilience against disasters and climate risks.

The inaugural 2023 edition made a strong economic and political case for the “resilience dividend,” urging greater investment in resilient infrastructure.

The second edition (2025) moves from advocacy to action, outlining practical pathways through risk assessment, innovative financing, governance reforms, disruptive technologies, and nature-based solutions. It provides actionable insights for policymakers, practitioners, and businesses to embed resilience in development strategies.
