As soon ans climate risks increases, we must strengthen the resilient infraestructure Natural distasters, which go from tsunamis in Asia and earthquakes in Latin America, to hurricanes in the Carbean and cyclons in Africa, caused the death of over 1.3 M people between 1998 and 2017, and uncalculated troubles on basic measns of living and in the infrastructure all over the world. There is no hints of decreasing the risk of all the threats that nature represents, specially after being witnesses of the devasting impacts of Iday Cyclon in families and communities in Africa at the beginning of this year. The worst thing is that climate change is making even more frequent, damaging and lethal, storms, floods, droughts and heat waves. Disasters might end up in a matter of seconds with decades of progress in development obtained with so much effort, and it has harmful and expensive effects that can last for years, and even affect the coming generations. Today, around 90% of urban expansion in countries in development, takes place closte to areas which are likely to be in danger. If urgent measures are not taken, natural disasters and climate change can cost 324.000 M $ every year to cities all over the world and lead to poverty over 77 M of urban inhabitants. When a disaster occurs, we all are in danger, however, those who suffer the worst consequences are often the poor people. Research points out that the impacts of disaster and climate change are two times more severe for poor homes because they tend to live in more vurnerable areas, where often life conditions are deficient. In the next 15 years, and with the lack of adequate investment in housing and improving the outskirts, we could see doubled the number of people living in precaries dwellings. In an era of climate risks and natural disasters becoming more severe, countries and cities have no ohter option that planning and investing more in resilient infrastructure (houses, schools and roads) in order to face all the challenges that urbanization and economic growth brings together. In fact, it is worth that our dwellings are safer and our schools more sesilient. Such investments can then improve essential servicies - as transport, and water and power delivery- and contribute to a wealthier and more resilient societies. Resilient infraestructure saves lives.
