This event brought together parliamentarians, experts, and hemispheric leaders to explore the connections between critical infrastructure, water and energy security, and technological risks. Listen to Law Professor Monica Sanders, from Georgetown University, and founder of The Undivide Project, speak about how we can think of critical infrastructure resilience as a human security theme. Professor Sanders also talks about the importance of gender-based approaches and reliable and updated data for the development of efficient policies towards the resilience of critical infrastructure.
