Infrastructure Instability

Infrastructure instability refers to the risk that essential systems like electricity, water, transportation, and communication networks may experience disruptions or failures. These systems are critical for daily life and economic activities; when they become unstable—due to aging infrastructure, natural disasters, cyber-attacks, or poor maintenance—it can lead to outages, delays, and reduced safety. Ensuring stability involves investing in modern, resilient infrastructure, proper maintenance, and contingency planning to prevent or quickly address such disruptions, maintaining reliable services and societal well-being.
