Duke RESILE

Duke RESILE is a Durham, North Carolina-based nonprofit center at Duke University dedicated to climate risk and resilience. We conduct interdisciplinary research, focusing on data science, modeling, and decision theory, to develop actionable strategies for communities and organizations.

RESILE serves a diverse range of clients, including state agencies, community partners, and the insurance sector, helping them understand and mitigate climate-related risks. Our work is grounded in systems thinking and collaborative engagement, aligning public and private interests to build more resilient communities.

Founded in 2023, RESILE has quickly established itself as a leader in climate resilience research and education, exemplified by the launch of the Center for Innovation in Risk, Catastrophes, and Decisions (CIRCAD). We are committed to training the next generation of resilience leaders and fostering a more sustainable future.
