    What's standing in the way of global resilience?

    The need for resilience transcends sectors and borders. Top thinkers from the International Federation of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies weigh in on what they believe are the greatest unmet needs today.

    By Molly Anders // 25 January 2016
    Devex speaks with top thinkers from the International Federation of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies.

    What’s the most critical obstacle facing resilience today and how can it be overcome in practice?

    On the sidelines of the 32nd Conference of the Red Cross and Red Crescent in Geneva, Switzerland, leaders and practitioners from the International Federation of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies offer what they view as the most critical obstacles in their work with youth, climate resilience, corruption and resource mobilization all over the world.

    Resilience in Action is an online conversation hosted by Devex, in partnership with the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies and the International Committee of the Red Cross, focusing on the practical realities of resilience building in the face of global challenges. Visit the campaign site to join the conversation using #ResilienceInAction.
