Mauritius is entering a new era of infrastructure risk, where volatile fuel markets, accelerating climate impacts, and ageing energy and water systems converge to create deep uncertainty. This report proposes a pioneering C4ISR–DMDU framework that blends defence-grade situational awareness with robust, adaptive planning to help the country identify low-regret investments and strengthen long-term resilience. Drawing on authoritative national data and international best practice, it outlines how integrated sensing, real-time analytics, and adaptive pathways can transform decision-making in both the energy and water sectors—ensuring Mauritius remains secure, resilient, and future-ready.
