This review paper addresses the critical need to enhance resilience within global supply chains against the impacts of climate change. It systematically explores strategies for identifying and assessing risks, adapting supply chain practices, fostering collaborative efforts among stakeholders, and leveraging policy and regulatory support. The study highlights financial, technological, and regulatory challenges impeding resilience implementation, emphasizing the exacerbating effect of global inequalities. Recommendations are provided for businesses, policymakers, and international bodies to facilitate effective implementation of resilience strategies. The paper calls for future research focusing on empirical validation, integrating long-term climate projections, and exploring social dimensions within supply chain resilience. The comprehensive approach aims to bolster global supply chains against climate-induced disruptions, contributing to sustainable economic stability and community well-being.This review paper addresses the critical need to enhance resilience within global supply chains against the impacts of climate change.
