The disproportionate impacts of climate change can challenge capacity for sustainable urban development and planning, as cities around the world work to address priorities like emissions levels, intensifying climate risks, environmental justice and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;After three years working to improve lives and uplift vulnerable communities around the world, we&#8217;re proud to recognize the success of the IBM Sustainability Accelerator by strengthening both our impact and our investment in the program,&#8221; said&nbsp;Justina Nixon-Saintil, IBM Vice President and Chief Impact Officer. &#8220;We look forward to working with a new cohort of partners to transform the cities we live in, and to deploy solutions that harness the potential of artificial intelligence to build a more resilient future.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p dir=\"ltr\">This year, the program will introduce a new strategic collaboration with EY to strengthen the participant experience and amplify the impact of the IBM Sustainability Accelerator. EY will contribute to the resilient cities cohort by providing support during the RFP selection process, organizational development coaching from EY teams, and capacity-building workshops that will build upon the leadership development and professional mentoring opportunities available to program participants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The evaluation and selection criteria for the global RFP will consider applicants&#8217; level of support to communities especially vulnerable to urban environmental threats; the feasibility and sustainability of proposed technology solutions for climate change mitigation; and applicants&#8217; transparency on measurement and reporting, among other considerations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>IBM announced increasing investment in its pro-bono social impact program by 50%, committing to make up to\u00a0$45 million\u00a0in cash and in-kind donations of technology and services available over the next five years.
