New York, NY, US • 20 - 49 Employees
City Government/Municipal Government

Our work is anchored in knowledge gained in the development of the urban resilience movement, bringing together a diverse set of skills across government, civil society and the private sector. We believe that resilience thinking combined with courageous leadership and radical collaboration will make cities stronger, more equitable and ultimately more resilient for current and future generations. RCC will help cities identify areas of opportunities, address them through innovative design, and implement solutions. We will do this through three core program offerings: 1. Resilience Roadmaps to create enabling environments for investment and action through participatory resilience assessment and planning processes.2. Project Incubators to design projects that maximize resilience impact, ensuring cities and communities have access to the technical, financial, and project preparation expertise required to move from concept to implementation.3. Catalyst Labs to facilitate the next generation of solutions and create new communities of practice in the urban resilience field.Cities represent our greatest opportunity for impact, while also posing significant risks with exposure to future shocks and stresses. We hope through RCC we can work with many of you to help cities achieve the change they desperately need.
