Accelerating readiness for changing risks

The Resilience Collaborative accelerates readiness for natural hazards. We bring together experts and decision-makers to turn science into action—integrating the latest resilience practices into risk assessments, strategies, and solutions that strengthen resilience before disaster strikes.

We shine a light on changing risks — so you can stay ahead. Natural hazards are evolving—extreme heat, floods, drought, storms, and wildfires are growing more intense and expanding into new locations. As vital systems strain and resources remain thin, awareness and plans are not enough. Real, sustained resilience takes foresight, practical tools, and coordinated action.

Preparation won't eliminate the problems and the stress. But I can tell you this: if you don't have a plan, you are definitely going to have the worst-case outcome.”
