BEMA International is a global entity. Participate in CDRI survey for change to win $300.00

 
Warm greetings from the Coalition for Disaster Resilient Infrastructure (CDRI).

CDRI is developing Biennial Report on Global Infrastructure Resilience to focus global attention on the critical and multi-faceted challenges posed to disaster and climate resilient infrastructure with a thematic focus on Nature-based solutions. The report will be launched at the G20 Summit in 2023.

One Pillar of the report entails developing a Global Infrastructure Resilience Index (GIRI). For this Pillar, CDRI has engaged the University of Oxford to develop and launch the Global Infrastructure Resilience Survey (GIRS). This is an international survey that envisages to develop improved understanding of the non-physical aspects of infrastructure systems that enable climate and disaster resilient development. 

Please participate if you are an infrastructure professional in any of the following sectors: drinking water, waste water, electricity, road, rail, oceans and river ports, airports, mobile communication and fixed-line communication. Two respondents stand to win a cash prize of US$300 each in a lucky draw. The survey is available in all official UN languages.
