A. Why search for a service?

Making cities resilient is a process.  Cities are at different stages and require different level of support to take certain actions to progress along the resilience roadmap. 

The MCR2030 online dashboard brings in participating entities with specific knowledge, tools and expertise that can support cities to progress along the resilience roadmap journey. These are, for example, national government entity, national association of municipality, development agency, non-governmental organizations (NGO), civil society organizations (CSO), academia and research institution, private sector organization, UN entity or organization, networks, etc. 

Cities participating in MCR2030 have access to the services offered by these participating entities which are categorized into thematic areas appropriated for each resilience roadmap stages (A, B or C).  This guide helps cities to navigate through the service directory and be able to search for services matching the cities’ needs and interests.
