City Resilience Program (CRP)

This program organizes a series of capacity-building workshops focused on resilience planning, where participating cities gain technical expertise to prioritize and design resilience-enhancing investments based on World Bank Group (WBG) operations. A key component of the workshops is hands-on training with the City Scan, a tool that combines spatial and socio-economic data to help decision-makers engage in discussions about natural hazards and disaster risks. Through these workshops, cities develop coordinated strategies to address risks in key sectors and areas that require targeted investments.

Overview

The City Resilience Program (CRP) conducts capacity-building workshop series focused on resilience planning, helping cities leverage a range of technical expertise to design investments that enhance urban resilience based on World Bank Group (WBG) operations. These workshops offer hands-on training in using the City Scan, a tool that integrates large amounts of spatial and socio-economic data. The City Scan enables city leaders and development partners to discuss and identify priority areas for addressing natural hazards and disaster risks. By focusing on key sectors and geographical areas, these workshops encourage cities to develop coordinated strategies for resilience-building. Participants leave with the knowledge and tools needed to implement investments that address both immediate and long-term risks in their cities.
