Anytown Workshop

London Resilience coordinates institutions and communities to prevent, handle, recover and learn from disruption, and adapt to change on behalf of the Mayor of London, Local Authorities and London Fire Brigade.

London Resilience

Background: 
We’re increasingly reliant on interconnected systems for providing critical services. As climate change increases potential for disruption, the <A HREF="http://climatelondon.org.uk/projects/understanding-the-ripple-effect-anytown/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Anytown project</A> is helping to build our understanding of cascading failures and providing a means of articulating this complexity to non-experts. This will help inform emergency response, resilience, infrastructure investment, and adaptation.  
Workshop Aim: 
This workshop will consider the broader consequences resulting from a disruption to transport networks. This will be combined with outputs from <A HREF="http://climatelondon.org.uk/projects/understanding-the-ripple-effect-anytown/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">previous workshops</A> and used to enhance the model that <A HREF="http://www.londonprepared.gov.uk" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">London Resilience</A> has developed to help decision makers understand system interdependencies and manage risks proactively. This understanding will also support the case for action to consider resilience in the longer term.
A full agenda will be sent to registered email addresses the week before the workshops. 
Suggested Attendance:
We welcome public and private sector business continuity managers, facilities managers, climate change adaptation managers, logistics, asset managers, highways engineers, and anyone with an interest in building the resilience of interdependent systems.
