A significant hurdle in attaining disaster and climate resilience is the scarcity of essential resources, particularly financial support. This course offers insights into tapping into global and regional funds dedicated to disaster risk and climate concerns, along with techniques for resource mobilization. Throughout the course, participants will craft personalized resource acquisition strategies enriched by workshops, presentations, dialogues, and consultative sessions.

This course addresses the challenge of insufficient financial resources in achieving disaster and climate resilience. It guides participants in accessing global and regional disaster risk and climate funds for sustainable financing and effective mobilization strategies. Participants actively create tailored resource mobilization plans throughout the program through workshops, presentations, discussions, and consultations.

This course thoroughly explores financial mechanisms, strategies, and tools crucial for enhancing disaster and climate resilience across various societal levels. Given the increasing impact of climate change and the rising frequency and severity of disasters, mastering resilience financing becomes imperative for individuals, organizations, and governments. By course completion, participants will possess the knowledge and skills to develop, execute, and manage financing strategies that strengthen disaster preparedness, response, and recovery while mitigating climate change's adverse effects.

Enhance the participants' understanding of potential avenues to access finance from the public, private, and international finance mechanisms to support disaster risk reduction and climate resilience initiatives.
