The program aims to equip financial planners and resilience practitioners with the ability to:

• Evaluate Financing Instruments: Distinguish between risk retention (contingency funds, reserve accounts) and risk transfer (catastrophe bonds, parametric insurance, reinsurance).
• Implement Risk Layering: Develop multi-tiered financial strategies where different instruments are triggered based on the frequency and severity of disaster events.
• Draft Bankable Proposals: Master the art of "innovative proposal writing" to access global climate funds (e.g., GCF, Adaptation Fund) and private capital.
• Analyze Fiscal Impact: Quantify potential disaster shocks to the national or sub-national budget to justify upfront investment in resilience.
• Foster Innovation: Identify emerging technologies and "fintech" solutions—such as blockchain for parametric payouts or AI-driven risk modeling—that enhance transparency and speed.

The course uses a "Fin-Lab" approach, focusing on real data and active strategy development.

• The "Stress Test" Simulation: Participants are given a mock national budget and a disaster scenario. They must decide which funds to trigger and how to reallocate resources without collapsing the economy.
• Proposal Writing "Sprints": Intensive, timed sessions where groups draft key sections of a resilience investment proposal under the guidance of expert reviewers.
• Instrument "Marketplace": A structured networking session where participants "shop" for the best mix of financial instruments for a specific hazard profile, guided by insurance and finance experts.
• Case Clinics: Deep-dive analysis of successful innovative finance examples, such as the Philippines' Catastrophe Bond or Indonesia’s Pool Reinsurance for state assets.
• Digital Demos: Live walkthroughs of risk analytics platforms and automated payout dashboards to see how "innovation" functions in real-time.
• Pitch Competition: The course culminates in a "Dragons' Den" style pitch where groups present their resilience investment proposals to a panel of mock "Donors/Investors."

•Finance and Planning Officials from Government Ministries
•Insurance Sector Professionals
