Upcoming Events:
Societal resilience in crisis management
Monday 9 December, 3-5.30pm
Vera Anstey Room, Old Building, ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳
In a world of acute and creeping crises, increasing emphasis has been placed on societal resilience. National and sectoral crisis frameworks have emerged that emphasise the importance of community engagement in crisis management. This workshop focuses on the alignment of different frameworks, the underlying assumptions that feed into understandings of societal resilience and whether frameworks address a world of acute and protracted crises that are frequently of a transboundary nature.
This workshop explores both international academic and practitioner approaches towards building and maintaining societal resilience. Speakers include Arjen Boin (Leiden) and Rebecca Elliott (ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳). It celebrates the work of our former CARR Director Bridget Hutter whose final work on societal resilience in flood management was published as CARR discussion paper (/accounting/assets/CARR/documents/D-P/DP89.pdf)
