Codes, Standards, and Certifications

Partenaire de mise en œuvre: Build Change

Infrastructure assets and systems face growing threats from geophysical and climate hazards, requiring practitioners to adapt planning, design, construction, and operations to reduce current and future disaster risks.

Infrastructure standards and building codes are crucial for scaling resilience, ensuring durability against future challenges.

CDRI advances this effort by promoting quality infrastructure certifications and supporting the development and revision of resilient infrastructure standards, prioritizing vulnerable countries to strengthen long-term sustainability and risk preparedness.
