The Sustainability and resilience chapter outlines ratings tools and sustainability approaches to ensure climate mitigation and resilience are considered in social infrastructure investment and services. It also provides a pathway for embedding a systemic approach to resilience that informs land-use and infrastructure planning and decision-making.
