Title: How can scenario exercises help communities prepare for real-life emergencies?
Description: The seventh session of the London Resilient Communities webinar series explores how practicing emergency scenarios (e.g. heatwave, civil unrest, power outage) can bring people together, build confidence, and strengthen local preparedness. Scenario exercises offer a hands-on, engaging way for communities to test their plans, spot gaps, and grow more resilient before a real crisis hits.
Led by Katherine Hill from the British Red Cross, the session will share how to design meaningful community exercises, create realistic scenarios, and involve local partners. You will also hear inspiring real-world examples of communities learning, adapting, and becoming stronger through practice.

Title: What can we learn from international approaches to understanding vulnerability and adapting to climate risks?
Description: The final session of the London Resilient Communities webinar series explores how communities across different geographies are approaching climate resilience through a social and community-focused lens. This special session brings an international perspective, offering insights, emerging practices, and reflections to help inform local action in diverse contexts.
Join Jo Healy, Senior Associate at BECA in New Zealand, as she shares insights from her work on community vulnerability and adaptation. Drawing on a range of experiences, she will explore key challenges communities are facing, approaches to understanding and assessing vulnerability, and how inclusive, community-led processes can support more equitable and effective adaptation over time.
