Managing Systemic Risk and Building Resilient Communities
Call for Speakers: New Orleans Forum on Climate Linked Economics January 12-16, 2025, at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center
Systemic risk refers to the potential for disruptions or failures within a system, such as an economy or financial market, to spread and impact the entire system. Climate change presents profound risks to global financial stability. The transition to a low-carbon economy brings both challenges and opportunities. The forum will explore this transition's systemic risks and potential economic impacts. Addressing systemic risks requires effective policy and governance responses at national and international levels. The forum will highlight key policy frameworks and explore their role in mitigating systemic risks.
Infrastructure investments must be resilient and require substantial capital. Submissions are encouraged to address the challenges and opportunities for climate-resilient infrastructure projects. Societal investment horizons that address extreme weather and climate risk involve long-term strategies and initiatives aimed at mitigating and adapting to the impacts of climate change. These investments recognize extreme weather events' shifting frequency and severity and seek to build resilience in communities, infrastructure, and ecosystems.
