Resilience Session 12 - Extreme Weather: Cooperative Solutions explores social resilience in the face of extreme weather, a growing focus of PIARC Technical Committee 1.5 – Disaster Management. Social resilience refers to the ability of individuals, communities, and societies to cope with shocks, stress, or disruptions—such as natural disasters, economic crises, or social conflicts—while maintaining their essential functions and rebuilding in a way that makes them better prepared for future challenges. As climate-related events intensify, strategies to enhance social resilience are essential. The session promotes knowledge sharing to support global efforts in building more resilient and reliable road networks.
