Drawing from a forthcoming SDCC publication on the “state of play” on disaster-resilient infrastructure in Asia and the Pacific, a risk assessment framework for infrastructure will be presented. The methodology includes the importance of a risk narrative, the role of risk modeling, and how this informs integrated findings for decision making will be explored. An illustrative case of critical roads in Pakistan will be presented.
