Professional judgment for a world under pressure

Since 2009, the Security and Sustainability Forum has convened 300+ webinars with global leaders on building companies, communities, and social systems that can absorb disruption and keep going.

Current Programming

Pressures are reshaping how energy systems, climate conditions, and the institutions that hold societies together actually function. The webinars are organized into three tracks

Three tracks. Resilience as the through-line.

Energy and Security

The energy system is under pressure from geopolitical conflict, electrification and grid modernization, and the clean energy transition. This track spans power markets, infrastructure resilience, cyber vulnerability, and the security of the systems that keep the lights on.

Climate Adaptation_city flooding

Climate Adaptation and Natural Hazards

Climate change and natural hazards are reshaping infrastructure, public finance, and how organizations plan and invest. This track explores climate risk, adaptation planning, natural systems and nature-based solutions, and the built environment.

Society and Security image photorealistic

Security and Society

Security extends past infrastructure into the institutions, systems, and communities that have to hold under stress, whether pressures arrive individually or several at once. This track addresses national security, public health, supply chains, workforce, food and water, and the civic trust that lets societies function.

Recordings in each track are free and open.
