Company overview

Urban Resilience Hub is an initiative of UN-Habitat’s City Resilience Global Programme (CRGP), focusing on strengthening the capacity of cities worldwide to withstand and recover from various shocks and stresses, such as climate change, natural disasters, and social challenges. The Hub serves as a knowledge platform, offering resources, tools, and guidance to urban leaders, planners, and stakeholders to integrate resilience into urban development strategies. Funding primarily comes from international donors, development agencies, and UN member states, supporting technical assistance, research, and policy advocacy. Established as part of UN-Habitat’s broader mission to promote sustainable urbanization, the Hub has played a key role in advancing global urban resilience frameworks and facilitating collaboration among cities, governments, and partners. Candidates should be aware of its emphasis on innovation, cross-sectoral partnerships, and the alignment of local action with global agendas like the Sustainable Development Goals and the New Urban Agenda.
