Innovation and Adaptation in the Climate Crisis: Technology for the New Normal

The WEF 2024 Innovation and Adaptation in the Climate Crisis report highlights how technology and policy innovation are critical to building climate resilience. It emphasizes scaling solutions in renewable energy, nature-based systems, resilient infrastructure, and digital monitoring to adapt to worsening climate impacts. Barriers include financing gaps, fragmented governance, and unequal access to innovation. The report calls for stronger public-private collaboration, risk-sharing mechanisms, and policies that accelerate deployment. By embedding adaptation into economic planning and fostering inclusive innovation, stakeholders can reduce vulnerability, strengthen sustainability, and unlock long-term resilience in a rapidly changing climate.
