ABOUT FARHANA SONIA AHMAD
I connect global and U.S. climate resilience strategies through research, evaluation, and implementation.My work centers on helping cities and institutions use data, evidence, and community insights to strengthen climate mitigation, adaptation and disaster risk management. I define resilience as encompassing all three.With expertise in urban planning, monitoring and evaluation, and resilience financing, I design approaches that translate research into actionable policy and investment decisions. I focus on integrating multi-hazard risk analysis, geospatial mapping, and social vulnerability data to guide risk-informed planning.By linking community engagement, financing, and policy, I help build adaptive and inclusive urban systems that protect lives, reduce inequality, and enhance resilience.
