RAF Chair to deliver Keynote at 2024 Disasters Expo USA

...

Resilience Action Fund (RAF) is pleased to announce its collaboration with Disasters Expo USA, the leading event addressing disasters caused by natural and climate hazards. It is curated for professionals looking for solutions to help communities mitigate hazards and better prepare, respond and recover from disasters.

In 2023, the US experienced 25 weather/climate disaster events with losses exceeding $1 billion each, an all-time high. Disasters Expo USA could not be more timely. The event is returning to the Miami Beach Convention Center on March 6th & 7th 2024. Thousands of industry experts from around the world will gather to discuss hazard mitigation and the latest essential preparations and training methods on how to reduce negative societal, economic and environmental impacts of disasters.

RAF Founding Chair Aris Papadopoulos will be delivering the keynote speech, titled ‘The World Bank’s Free Tool for Rating Resilience’.  He will present the International Finance Corp’s Building Resilience Index (BRI), a first-of-its-kind robust and easy-to-use tool for rating the hazard resilience of any type of building, anywhere in the world. Financial institutions are beginning to use BRI in their property lending evaluations.

Tickets for the event are $119, but we have been given the promo code: ARIS100 that will enable you to attend the event for FREE.
