Climate Resilient Infrastructure

Cities and communities worldwide must develop strategies to respond to climate change’s impacts and prepare for future threats. Repeated disasters or stressors stunt economic growth and can destroy years of development gains. Miyamoto’s multidisciplinary experts understand disaster. With data and experience responding to more than 100 environmental disasters in the last 30 years, we quantify risk and the economic and social benefits of targeted adaptation solutions to prioritize investments that save money and lives, acknowledging long-term sustainability. Our systems-based approach considers a more macro-scale, engaging solutions the address infrastructure as an interdependent network, rather than isolated interventions.

Miyamoto has advised governments, businesses, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and multi-lateral donors. We use probabilistic, multi-hazard risk modeling to inform and improve resilience solutions for transport, energy, buildings, housing, and other infrastructure sectors.
