Our projects
Projects that turn data into resilience
Across Tanzania and beyond, Resilience Academy partners on projects that map hazards, open up geospatial data and help communities and cities plan for a changing climate.

How we work
Applied projects, built with partners
Our projects are hands-on and partner-led. Working with universities, government and communities, we collect and open geospatial data, then put it to work in real planning and disaster-risk decisions — the same data that trains our student interns and fills the Climate Risk Database.
Flood risk mapping
Community mapping of flood-prone wards and drainage.
Coastal resilience
Monitoring coastal erosion and sea-level risk.
Urban planning & land use
Data to guide land-use and infrastructure decisions.
Drone & remote sensing
Aerial imagery for high-resolution basemaps.
Community mapping
Residents mapping their own neighbourhoods.
Climate & disaster data
Open datasets feeding the Climate Risk Database.
