Building Climate Resilience

Dr Rezal Khairi Ahmad, CEO, NanoMalaysia

Building Climate Resilience

Climate change poses an unprecedented threat to both Malaysia and the global community. In Malaysia, the increasing frequency and intensity of climate-induced events, such as the devastating floods in 2021 which displaced approximately 400,000 individuals, underscore the nation's vulnerability and the urgent need for robust adaptation and resilience strategies.

We speak with Dr Rezal Khairi Ahmad, CEO of NanoMalaysia, to explore the urgent topic of climate resilience. With Malaysia facing significant challenges such as floods and landslides, it is crucial to understand the strategies and innovations driving the nation's efforts to adapt and thrive.
