2021 Infrastructure and Public Procurement Week

Session 2 - Breakout Session 2: Resilient infrastructure for the recovery

Oct 27, 2021 | 1:35 PM - 2:45 PM

Description

Infrastructure is long-lived and the adverse effects of aging infrastructure can threaten assets’ value for money and capacity to deliver the services that they are intended to provide. To ensure quality of services, infrastructure needs to be resilient. The G20 report on resilience and maintenance of infrastructure, developed by the OECD, presents a framework for optimising existing assets and for building new resilient infrastructure in order to ensure infrastructure quality and performance over the asset lifecycle. The framework leverages new technologies and nature based solutions for infrastructure.
