Image of event flyer. Yellow box with text "From Local Risks to Global Resilience: Natural Hazards and Sustainable Resource Management." Beneath, text separated by yellow lines reading "Thursday, November 6th from 6:30pm - 8:30pm in the Maraschi Room of Fromm Hall". At the bottom there are pictures of different natural disasters - a flood, a wildfire, a drought, an earthquake, and a tsunami.

This panel explores the intersection of natural hazards, resource management, and sustainability. Panelists will share how communities can adapt to risks such as wildfires, floods, and droughts while balancing local needs with global pressures. Drawing on case studies and applied strategies, we will highlight the tools, frameworks, and cross-sector innovations that support resilient resource management in a changing climate.

  • John Lim Ji Xiong - Chief Digital Officer, GAMUDA
