Resilience Studio® - Supporting climate-smart investment decisions

Resilience Studio® is our digital platform for designing and testing options to reduce climate and disaster risk. It helps decision-makers explore future scenarios, assess a wide range of interventions – from hard infrastructure, to nature-based solutions, to institutional strengthening – and develop adaptation pathways that build long-term resilience.

Benefits

Why choose Resilience Studio®?

As the climate changes, decision-makers face increasing uncertainty around where, when, and how to invest in resilience. Resilience Studio® helps governments, donors and planners navigate this complexity by identifying adaptation options that are effective, sustainable, and grounded in evidence.

Engaging, visual interface

Support the co-design of resilience strategies through a highly visual and interactive platform.

AI-assisted strategy optimisation

Rapidly assess a wide range of traditional, nature-based and hybrid options under different future scenarios.

Multi-scale, multi-hazard assessment

Evaluate resilience strategies at any scale and for multiple hazards — including flood, drought and coastal risks.

Applications

How can Resilience Studio® help you?

Resilience Studio® supports long-term climate adaptation and investment planning at local, regional and national scales. It can be applied anywhere in the world and tailored to data-rich or data-scarce environments. By integrating with existing planning processes and stakeholder engagement efforts, it enables confident, evidence-based decision-making.

  • Resilience strategy design

Create integrated strategies that bring together nature-based solutions, land use planning, early warning, and disaster risk financing.

  • Prioritising investment

Identify the most effective interventions using multi-criteria analysis based on cost, social value, and ecosystem services.

  • Supporting long-term planning

Build flexible, long-term adaptation pathways that support sustainable, risk-informed investment decisions.

Urban flood resilience in Bujumbura and Gatumba, Burundi

We worked with the World Bank and the Government of Burundi to design a risk-informed investment strategy for urban flood resilience in Bujumbura and Gatumba. The strategy set out immediate and long-term actions, supported by detailed hazard and risk models, to guide ongoing resilience planning.

National Flood Risk Briefs: Informing disaster risk planning across Africa and Asia

We worked with the World Bank to produce National Flood Risk Briefs for 12 countries across Africa and Asia. The briefs are used to support early government engagement and prioritise disaster risk reduction and financing strategies.

Developing multi-hazard urban resilience strategies in Niger

Working for the World Bank, we developed multi-hazard investment strategies to strengthen urban resilience across 10 high-risk cities in Niger, addressing risks from flooding, drought and water resource pressures.

Strengthening national capacity for hydromet and early warning services in Niger

Working on behalf of the World Bank, we delivered a capacity assessment to inform investment in effective, locally relevant hydromet and early warning services for Niger.

Strengthening flood resilience through effective sediment management in Dar es Salaam

We worked on behalf of the World Bank to assess the impact of sedimentation on flood risk in Dar es Salaam and developed strategies for effective sediment management to strengthen flood resilience.

A collaborative approach to flood risk management in Romania

On behalf of the World Bank, we supported the Romanian government in developing Flood Hazard and Risk Maps (FHRMs) and risk-informed Flood Risk Management Plans (FRMPs), strengthening planning, resilience and flood response across the country.

Rapid response technical assistance for post-Cyclone Freddy recovery in Malawi

We worked on behalf of the World Bank to provide technical assistance during the early recovery phase following Cyclone Freddy in Malawi. Focusing on critical infrastructure in the Shire River Basin and Blantyre area, we provided advice to support recovery and future resilience.

Strengthening flood preparedness in Romania using the Ready2Respond framework

We were commissioned by the World Bank to assess Romania’s Emergency Preparedness and Response (EP&R) system. This assignment aimed to reduce the risk of flooding and enhance Romania’s flood risk management plans.

Strengthening integrated flood risk management in Asia

Working on behalf of the Asian Development Bank (ADB), we partnered with Landell Mills to help seven Developing Member Countries (DMCs) embed the principles of Integrated Flood Risk Management (IFRM). This initiative promoted basin-scale solutions to strengthen climate resilience.

Risk-informed land-use planning and flood resilience, Panama City

Working on behalf of the World Bank, we assessed future flood risk in the Tocumen catchment. This informed land-use planning and demonstrated the important role that nature-based solutions play in climate resilience.
