Today's guests:

Carolyn Murnaghan, national leader for Climate Adaptation and Resilience for Deloitte Canada
Christina Crue, emergency manager and advisory principal for Deloitte & Touche LLP
Justin Dawe, founder and CEO of Earth Force TechnologiesCommunities across the world are feeling the effects of climate change. That's unlikely to change any time soon.
According to the World Meteorological Organization, 2023 was the hottest year on record. The National Centers for Environmental Information estimates there's a 97% chance that 2024 will break that record.
The result of this warming—an increasing number of extreme weather events. The world is seeing more of these events, and they are increasing in severity.
Governments, private sector innovators, and communities are working together to respond to, track, and mitigate the effects of extreme weather events. Solutions range from the tried and tested, like levees and spillways, to new and emerging technology, like AI and advanced sensing technology.
To discuss these solutions, Tanya Ott is joined by Michael Flynn, Global Infrastructure, Transport and Regional Government lead for Deloitte Ireland; Jamie Sawchuk, national leader for Government and Public Services Alliances and Ecosystems for Deloitte Canada; Carolyn Murnaghan, national leader for Climate Adaptation and Resilience for Deloitte Canada; Christina Crue, emergency manager and advisory principal for Deloitte & Touche LLP; and Justin Dawe, founder and CEO of Earth Force Technologies. They discuss the challenges communities face and the potential solutions that may make a difference.
Perhaps more importantly, they focus on the mindset shift that this new weather reality is bringing to communities all over the world.
"Traditionally. you buy insurance for something that might happen once every 30 years," said Sawchuk. "But when it's happening once every other year, once every five years, we need to respond differently. We need to build differently. We need to plan differently. So, we're getting ahead of the risk versus just responding to the risk. And I think that's foundational. We need to mitigate the risk versus just buy insurance against it."

Digital tools and new technologies could have a massive impact on how government services are accessed and delivered—if governments can harness them in a way that benefits all citizens. That depends on more then just timely tech investments. Governments around the globe are rethinking how they communicate with citizens, how they handle data, and how they can make services more comprehensible across the board.
In this episode, we speak with Michele Causey and Jean Barroca about the promise and challenges of digital service delivery. Causey served in the US Department of Treasury for several years before joining Deloitte Consulting LP, where she leads the digital government transformation practice. Barroca worked on smart cities, mobility, and open data projects in Latin America, the Caribbean and Africa for the World Bank, where he was part of the Innovation Lab team. He now serves as the global public sector digital modernization leader for Deloitte Technology SA.
Barroca notes that thinking of digital service delivery as simply a tech issue could miss the point: "One of the things that is critical is for governments to stop doing digital and start being digital. And the way for that to happen is that the whole organization revolves around how to create the best experience taking advantage of technology."
We look at governments that are making strides in providing digital services, from a state that transformed applying for a business license into a one-stop process, to a nation that brought its citizens together to plan for a postpandemic future. We consider how a life-event approach to service delivery could transform interactions with government, and we talk to someone looking at how to achieve that on a national scale. Finally, we consider the challenges associated with widespread adoption of digital government, and consider how to ensure that digital service delivery does not itself become an obstacle to obtaining needed benefits.
