Calls for ABSTRACT and PAPERS for Resilient Infrastructures (by CDRI)

The Coalition for Disaster Resilient Infrastructure (CDRI) is calling for abstracts in the frame of its next technical conference “DRI Technical Conference 2022” that will be held in Delhi (India) next 12-13 October 2022 – last day being the International Day for Disaster Reduction 2022.

Besides the conference itself, a Special Issue of the Sustainable and Resilient Infrastructure journal (Taylor & Francis Editions) will be done, on the theme “Adaptive Pathways for Resilient Infrastructure”: “The initiative aims to promote multidisciplinary approaches for disaster and climate resilient infrastructure that has traditionally straddled several domains”.

When your abstract is accepted, you’ll be invited to redact a Paper (3000 words following a template) for which you may be  invited to further develop and discuss at the CDRI Technical Conference: “we seek to address gaps and highlight solutions related to uptake and implementation of adaptive pathways, fostering resilience of infrastructure systems to disasters and climate change, towards long-term sustainability [seeking] evidence-based science, case-studies, literature review, etc., targeted towards policymakers and practitioners”.

Some sub-themes to be covered (not limited to):

  • Dynamic disaster and climate change risk assessments for resilient infrastructure development.
  • Strengthening stakeholder participation and collaboration for adaptive pathways to resilient infrastructure.
  • Implementation of adaptive pathways across sectors (telecommunication, power, transportation, health, urban, etc.) fostering resilience in complex and interdependent infrastructure systems.
