Fostering Knowledge and Collaboration for Climate Resilience

From October 10th to the 13th, Frankfurt School of Finance & Management hosted a fruitful gathering of international experts, stakeholders, and visionaries for our second Climate Risk Insurance – Product Development Training course.

Over 25 dedicated professionals, representing more than 15 countries, came together to delve into the intricacies of climate and disaster risk insurance development. And this convergence wasn’t just an opportunity to gain knowledge; it was a platform to foster a global community committed to addressing these critical challenges.

Our gratitude goes to all the participants for their dedication and active involvement; to our panelists Fatma Dirkes, Dirk Steffes-Enn, Liam Carter, Anuj Kumbhat and Ralf Weiss, who provided profound insights into the relevance of climate and disaster risk insurance in the midst of our ever-evolving climate landscape: and to our exceptional trainers Dr. Gero Michel, Prof. Dr. David Bresch, Dr. Annette Detken, Eugen Doce, Olga Mursajew, Dr. Simon Wild, Dr. Arun Rana and Josh Ling for their significant expertise and guidance. Finally, many thanks to Frankfurt School Sustainable World Academy for their invaluable assistance in coordinating this incredible occasion.

As we reflect on this event’s success, we are eager for more opportunities to solidify our collaboration with our esteemed partners. We would like to continue building a network of individuals and organizations that are poised to make a substantial impact while enhancing the resilience and adaptive capacity of developing and emerging countries in the face of climate change.
