Environmental Journal: Resilient Cities Catalyst Launched in Lead Up to World Urban Forum

Resilient Cities Catalyst (RCC) was formally launched on January 28, 2020 in the lead-up to the World Urban Forum in Abu Dhabi. Led by former executives of 100 Resilient Cities, RCC is a new non-profit initiative comprised of urban practitioners and resilience experts with extensive experience working in cities around the world.

Through decades of combined experience in urban resilience, RCC staff have seen first-hand the risks and opportunities inherent in the world’s cities. By 2050, more than 70 per cent of the world’s population will live in urban areas and already nearly 500 million urban residents live in high-risk coastal areas. RCC will partner with cities to support innovation, leverage existing city resources, and reinforce continuity of effort in the face of these rapid changes.
