Developed by the Principles for Sustainable Insurance Initiative’s Canadian Insurance Industry Task Force Social Thematic Working Group, this paper is a first step by the Canadian insurance industry to open the discussion and dialogue about climate change adaptation considerations and the role that the insurance industry can take to help individuals, especially the most vulnerable.
The paper provides recommendations for widespread action on climate change adaptation integrating social equity considerations. The paper aims to trigger more initiatives from the industry and raise awareness and drive action around the relationship between climate change adaptation, insurance (particularly life and health insurance),and social inequities.
