Another essential component of overall country resilience to climate change is recognising and planning for Critical Infrastructure, particularly roads, ports, government buildings, energy generation, and water and sewerage management systems. Building capacity in managing the country’s critical infrastructure requires clear linkages between responsible Government entities, a responsive education and awareness programme targeting infrastructure users, supported by appropriate research, and followed by reflexive monitoring. Climate change adaptation needs to be mainstreamed into planning process for all new developments, with associated improvements in the building codes and their rigorous enforcement.
Infrastructure Long-term vision - Critical Infrastructure: "Another essential component of overall country resilience to climate change is recognising and planning for Critical Infrastructure, particularly roads, ports, government buildings, energy generation, and water and sewerage management systems. Building capacity in managing the country’s critical infrastructure requires clear linkages between responsible Government entities, a responsive education and awareness programme targeting infrastructure users, supported by appropriate research, and followed by reflexive monitoring" (12).
