Communities

Insurance for Good 2027 Conference

January 14, 2027 · Philadelphia, PA

University of Pennsylvania
Carey Law School

Hosted by Insurance for Good in partnership with the Penn Program on Regulation and the Kleinman Center for Energy Policy.

Join insurers, risk experts, and community leaders to explore how we can make communities more insurable in the face of rising disaster risks.

About the Conference

Across the country, communities facing rising disaster risk are watching property insurance become more expensive or harder to find. Local leaders want to act but often lack clear guidance on which investments will make their residents more insurable. Others have already made substantial investments in mitigation without seeing meaningful improvements in insurance availability or pricing.

Creating Insurable Communities brings insurers, risk experts, and communities into direct conversation to share lessons, spark new ideas, and accelerate solutions.

Taking a multi-hazard approach, the conference will explore the investments, programs, enabling conditions, and policy and regulatory reforms needed to support a healthy property insurance market—one that strengthens financial resilience, supports equitable recovery, reduces future losses, and helps create safer, thriving communities prepared for a changing climate.
