In November 2024, at COP29 in Baku, Azerbaijan, CDRI launched its first Disaster Resilient Infrastructure (DRI) Pavilion, themed “Resilient Infrastructure: Resilient World.”
This pavilion provided a platform for the global community to discuss DRI needs and action, share and exchange best practices, foster partnerships, and develop action plans for vulnerable populations.
At COP30 in Belem, Brazil, the DRI Pavilion will return with an enhanced ambition and a targeted agenda to drive progress.
