Professor Jarzabkowski

I am an expert in the public-private mechanisms proliferating around the world to address the protection gap for disaster insurance in the face of climate change. I am passionate about the need to provide financial and physical protection from disaster for people, and for businesses.

As a Professor at The University of Queensland and City St George’s, University of London, I research ways to transform insurance markets into tools for disaster risk reduction, and make homes and communities more resilient to extreme weather.
