The Road to Recovery
Christchurch is a coastal city situated on a major fault line, at risk of tsunami and susceptible to sea level rise caused by climate change. These characteristics could describe countless cities around the world, including many on Vancouver Island. Coastal cities are growing quickly, and the environment is changing faster than we can plan for. This makes them susceptible to unpredictable events which is why Building resilience is incredibly important to ensure coastal cities are prepared for a major disaster and the subsequent road to recovery.
