Floods wash out embankments, heatwaves buckle rails and droughts starve hydropower, yet many long-term infrastructure agreements are still signed on historic weather data and silent risk allocation. When an extreme event arrives, the dispute over who pays can cost more than the damage. Five days equip contract specialists and project teams to close that gap before signature.
You work through climate risk screening, design life and performance specifications, force majeure and change-in-law wording, relief events, insurance and step-in rights. Sessions compare how FIDIC forms, EPC contracts, concession agreements and availability-payment PPPs treat weather risk, and how lenders, grant funders and development finance institutions expect resilience to be evidenced. Clause drafting labs use roads, ports, water utilities and renewable energy examples. Contract managers, legal counsel, PPP unit staff, procurement specialists, engineers and infrastructure lenders in government, utilities and the private sector will gain most. Afterwards you can review a draft agreement, flag unallocated climate exposures, propose tested clause language and brief a negotiating team. Delivery is classroom, online or in-house, ending in a CPD-accredited certificate.
Infrastructure built today must perform through decades of hotter, wetter and more erratic weather. Across Africa, bridges, ports, irrigation schemes, power plants and urban drainage are already exposed to flooding, sea-level rise and heat stress. If the contract does not say who bears climate-driven delay, damage and extra cost, the answer is decided later by lawyers, insurers and arbitrators rather than by design.
The Climate Adaptation and Resilience Clauses in Infrastructure and PPP Contracts Training Course follows the contract from tender to handback. It starts with climate hazard and vulnerability screening, then shows how findings are converted into design standards, output specifications and performance indicators. Participants then examine risk allocation between public authority, concessionaire, contractor and lender, and learn to draft or negotiate force majeure, change in law, relief and compensation events, adaptation reopeners, insurance requirements and termination provisions.
Teaching is clause-focused and practical. Participants mark up extracts from real-style agreements, test wording against extreme-event scenarios and leave with a resilience clause library, a risk allocation matrix and a negotiation brief they can take straight into their next project.
By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
