In observance of this year’s World Habitat Day (WHD) theme 'Resilient Urban Economies: Cities as Drivers of Growth and Recovery,’ we invite you to a thought-provoking event that addresses the critical issue of climate change and economic resilience in Mumbai. It will closely examine Mumbai's vulnerability to climate change, emphasizing the far-reaching economic and social consequences of these challenges. 

Our panel of experts will draw upon their diverse backgrounds in policy, research, and the arts to explore how citizens can play a pivotal role in safeguarding our city's future through active community engagement, innovative advocacy, sustainable financing, and other impactful interventions, turning Mumbai into a beacon of sustainable urban living.
