Pune is slowly becoming a global hub by attracting and collaborating with


many international agencies including foundations, donor agencies and industry
bodies and thus bringing in the best know-how to the city and facilitating them
to set up pilot projects.

The Resilience Strategy will not only guide Pune city in streamlining and
strengthening its plans and actions but also help in strengthening its position
as a global hub. Pune has potential to become a Lighthouse City in resilience
building in India and can encourage other cities to follow it.

URBAN ECONOMY
How can we strengthen the
economy and workforce
capabilities in Pune?

‘Employment and business opportunities’ in Pune is perceived


as a strength for the city. This is largely driven by Pune Metro
Region’s diverse economic base supported by its knowledge
economy and access to a dynamic migrant workforce. However,
it is essential to be cognizant of challenges for both high-
skilled industries (automation, evolving technologies etc.) and
low-skilled ones (up-skilling needs, social security etc.). Our
interactions with experts reveal that the current ecosystem is
not adequately prepared, with fragmented investments made
in skilling, in creating pathways to attain and retain jobs, and
in promoting entrepreneurship. Beyond these, addressing the
underlying vulnerabilities of the low-skilled informal workers
and the unorganized sector is an opportunity to make the
economy resilient. Fortunately, there is significant stakeholder
will to support the CRO’s office in investigating the above
vulnerabilities in Phase 2.

NEXT STEPS
As next steps, the CRO and his team will deeply investigate
these Discovery Areas to prepare a resilience strategy for
the city through continued consultations with city leaders
and key stakeholders. In parallel, the CRO will facilitate the

initiatives that relate to these Discovery Areas.

RESILIENT PUNE PRELIMINARY RESILIENCE ASSESSMENT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY INTRODUCTION CITY CONTEXT OF PUNE DIAGNOSING RESILIENCE IN PUNE DISCOVERY AREAS NEXT STEPS
In 2016, Pune was selected to be part of the 100 Resilient Cities (100RC) initiative,
pioneered by The Rockefeller Foundation, which strives to help cities build urban
resilience around the social, economic, and physical challenges of the 21st century.
The 100RC initiative supports cities by financing and providing technical assistance,
access to the services of global organizations, opportunities to exchange experiences

INTRODUCTION and best practices among member cities, and access to tools for building resilience.

The Municipal Corporation of Pune views participation in the 100RC initiative as an


opportunity to share experiences and learn from other cities in the global community
and to build resilience to the chronic stresses and acute shocks that face the city.

100RC CITY RESILIENCE PROCESS


100RC supports the development of a resilience strategy in the city, which serves as a roadmap
to build resilience in a city. It highlights the city’s priorities, and specific interventions within those
priorities which combine both immediate and long term actions. In addition, 100RC also supports the
city to undertake initiatives in parallel to strategy creation in order to build momentum on the ground
and create a resilience community. The CRO, embedded within a city government, acts as a central
coordinator in both the design and implementation of the strategy.

100RC’S VISION FOR IMPACT OBJECTIVES OF THE STRATEGY PHASE INCLUDE

NEXT STEPS
Building on the mobilization and analysis of Phase 1, in Phase 2 Pune, led by the CRO,
partners with diverse and interdisciplinary teams—locally and globally— will explore
the challenges and innovate solutions following the city’s defined Discovery Areas. By
aligning new partners and resources in Phase 2, Pune has an opportunity to expand the
resilience team and supporters, to ask hard questions and apply systems thinking to the
city’s foremost resilience challenges. The work in this phase leverages existing actions
identified in Phase 1 and will result in specific priorities and initiatives for implementation.
The expected duration of Phase 2 is 4-6 months and will culminate in the release of a
strategy and focus on implementation.

The Phase 2 activity will be articulated in a Customized City Approach (CCA) for Pune.
