Our Vision

We envision a world where cities and communities take bold action to ensure people — particularly the most vulnerable — are safer, healthier and more prosperous despite the increasingly frequent shocks and persistent stresses of our time.

Today, our work on the ground ranges from helping communities in California unlock millions of dollars of climate funding; to partnering with Australia’s Minderoo Foundation to designing a vision for more resilience in the aftermath of wildfires; to working with city and local leaders in Houston to help historically vulnerable neighborhoods mitigate risk.
