About this Event

No one thinks about emergencies—until they’re the only thing that matters.

The Anniversary floods have forced a long-avoided conversation about climate adaptation. No one wants Auckland to face another disaster like January 2023, which resulted in $4 billion in losses. So, how can we prevent it from happening again? And who should take the lead—insurance companies, the owners of soon-to-be stranded assets, local or central government, or communities?

This crucial discussion, led by local board member Alex Bonham, will bring together insurance specialists, engineers, and policy experts to explore collaborative solutions that can ease the transition toward a more resilient future.
