As such, transport drew upon Japanese and international experts TKX Technical Knowledge Exchange investments have been integral to the World to showcase innovative approaches and Bank’s partnerships with client countries.

Country representatives and World Bank-supported projects. However, World Bank teams learned from one another these investments are increasingly exposed and from Japan’s challenges and successes to disaster and climate hazards, including with large-scale disasters. One key lesson was landslides, flooding, and earthquakes. To that continuously reviewing and enhancing manage and reduce the risks these hazards domestic practices and regulations will may pose, low- and middle-income countries ultimately increase the resilience of transport are seeking new approaches to plan, design, networks. construct, operate, and maintain their transportation systems. The Resilient Transport TKX also served as a platform for the launch of the new Road On May 8–12, 2017, the World Bank Disaster Geohazard Risk Management Handbook Risk Management (DRM) Hub in Tokyo and developed under the Hub’s Knowledge the Resilient Transport Community of Practice Program. The tool was presented alongside (CoP) hosted a week-long Technical Knowledge case studies of its application across federal, Exchange (TKX) in Tokyo that convened clients state, and municipal levels in Brazil and Serbia. and World Bank task team leaders (TTLs) from The Handbook itself urges a shift away from traditional and reactive approaches towards a multidimensional geohazard risk management approach that incorporates people, the environment, hydrology, and geology as well as transportation infrastructure so that such proactive methodology can result in 60–70 percent life-cycle cost savings. Going forward, the Resilient Transport CoP will continue to connect current and future World Bank transport investments with the information, tools, and technical expertise that exist in Japan and in many countries in the area of resilient transport.
