The Resilience Test: An interactive climate crisis simulation

When an extreme weather event strikes, the decisions made in the first few hours can have consequences that last for years. As climate-related physical risks intensify, businesses face growing pressure to anticipate, respond to and recover from disruptive events, while navigating complex legal, operational, financial and reputational challenges. 

Join DLA Piper and Climate Action for an interactive simulation exploring how organisations can respond to a rapidly evolving climate-related crisis. Through a realistic extreme weather scenario, participants will be challenged to make critical decisions as events unfold, balancing competing priorities, managing uncertainty, and navigating the legal and commercial implications of their choices. 

Drawing on practical experience from across jurisdictions, our multidisciplinary team will guide participants through the exercise, exploring lessons from real-world events, emerging litigation and regulatory risks, and strategies for strengthening organisational resilience. 

This interactive session will offer participants an opportunity to: 

• Test crisis response and decision-making under pressure in a realistic, evolving scenario. 
• Explore the legal, regulatory, operational, and reputational challenges arising from extreme weather events. 
• Consider how organisations can manage competing stakeholder expectations and responsibilities.
• Identify practical lessons for strengthening preparedness, response, and long-term climate resilience.
