Resilience is the ability for individuals, communities and systems to survive, adapt and grow in spite of stresses and shocks. From the impacts of climate change, to an influx of refugees, cities across the MENA face a growing number of environmental, social and economic challenges, which each bring change and uncertainty. Building resilience requires a forward-thinking, interdisciplinary and proactive approach to preventing and reducing the effects of inevitable challenges, rather than dealing with the aftermath of these stresses later.
As the region continues its fast-paced urbanization, city residents will become increasingly more exposed to the adverse effects of climate change, and subject to social, economic, and financial stresses and shocks. In order to build more resilient cities capable of withstanding such hazards, we are looking for women entrepreneurs who are innovating in the following categories:
Ventures in this area will address inefficiencies in agriculture, and will improve food systems to provide better food security for all
Ventures in this area will improve reliable access to electricity, will introduce sustainable energy resources, and will help preserve and restore the environment
Ventures in this area will improve access to water and to sanitation for all
Ventures in this area help create more resilient urban spaces through better connectivity, housing quality, and improves the resilience component of new and existing infrastructure
Ventures in this area improve government transparency and civic engagement
Ventures in this area improve their communities’ health systems and make them more resilient
Ventures in this area use cutting-edge technology to build more robust services to customers, improve financial inclusion in their communities, and help the government better deliver services to those in need by leveraging data
Ventures in this area reduce the bottlenecks in the job market, and improve social cohesion and outcomes
Ventures in this area help communities better prepare themselves in the face of natural disasters, flooding, and extreme weather, among others
