How can the development community help build resilience to acute systemic shocks in the face of growing risk and vulnerability? Recent developments have raised global attention to the increasing threats that many countries encounter, in terms of vulnerability to natural disasters, climate change, fragility, conflict, and macroeconomic volatility. Building on the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction, other stakeholder insights and recent work by the World Bank’s Independent Evaluation Group, a seminar was promoted by the World Bank Group in Washington on April 20, 2017 as a side event of IMF-World Bank spring meetings, with the aim of exploring how WB and its development partners can better assist client countries in improving their resilience to acute systemic shocks. Gabriele Quinti (LSC) participated in the event representing the CARISMAND Project.
