Resilience, Readiness & Response

Congrats to the Project CASA team for publishing this first of its kind cross-country comparison of military responses to climate emergencies. The report analyzes countries’ current legal and policy frameworks, operational frameworks, military training, delineation of military and civilian roles, and international coordination. It also includes perspectives on the potential advantages and disadvantages of increasing military involvement in civil protection, as well as the comparative advantages of civilian and military agencies. It was a privilege to serve on the advisory board with such an impressive interdisciplinary group of experts and I hope we’ll be able to build on this research in 2026.
