Climate Resilience

Building resilient economies and societies for a changing climate

The New Alignment brings together research and policy thinking on how governments and institutions can build climate-resilient economies while ensuring that the costs and opportunities of transition are shared fairly. We explore practical approaches to strengthening social protection, food and energy systems, infrastructure, finance and international cooperation in the face of a changing climate.

Our work connects climate resilience with the broader challenges of economic transformation and global governance—identifying policies that can reduce vulnerability, support those most exposed to climate risks, and create more inclusive and sustainable pathways to prosperity.
