The dialogue explores how the G20 embraced QII and the ingenious ways resilience is woven into these guiding principles. Discover how these principles are championed and their impact tracked on a global scale. The dialogue shall also delve into the real-world impact, examining how Japan-supported development projects exemplify the QII principles, particularly showcasing the resilience factor in action. Finally, we'll shift our focus to the Pacific, where island nations have taken the lead by formulating their own Pacific Quality Infrastructure Principles. Uncover the driving forces behind this initiative and how resilience is strategically integrated. Learn about the ambitious plans for implementing and promoting these principles across the Pacific region. Key takeaways Resilience as a Core Principle: disaster resilience is not an afterthought, but a fundamental principle that must be integrated into all aspects of QII Principles. Global Commitment to QII: The G20's adoption of QII principles signifies a global commitment to improving infrastructure quality and resilience. International Cooperation & Regional Leadership: Japan's support for resilient infrastructure projects and the Pacific's regional leadership in prioritizing resilience demonstrate the crucial role of both international cooperation and regional ownership in building a more resilient future.
