Advancing holistic understanding of community RESILIence and heritAGE drivers through community-based methodologies

Project description

Digital tools and heritage drivers for community resilience in Europe

Community resilience pertains to a community’ s capacity to recover from a disaster in a sustainable manner. The EU-funded RESILIAGE project aims to harness the resource of community resilience in Europe, and heritage as a driver for its enhancement, using digital tools and softer approaches to bring about a transformation in disaster risk management. This transformation will influence how research and practice address various societal aspects, including culture, risk awareness, inclusion, as well as socio-economic and geographical conditions. The project will consolidate knowledge within a systemic innovation framework and provide impactful solutions. It will also develop digital tools and seamlessly integrate them into a platform known as the Resource Ecosystem for Community Resilience. The platform will offer accurate information and support to first responders, authorities, and citizens.

Objective

RESILIAGE’s mission is to provide novel knowledge and impactful solutions for exploiting Europe´s hidden and unused resource: community resilience. RESILIAGE will enable a step-change in Disaster Risk Management and in the way research and practice deal with variation in aspects of society like culture, risk awareness, inclusion, socio-economic and geographical conditions by co-creating resilient communities through digital tools and soft solutions consolidated in a holistic and systemic approach.

RESILIAGE aims to improve understanding of the behaviour and psychological reactions of diverse society groups affected by a natural and man-made disaster and enhance community resilience. Indeed, with the proactive and participatory involvement of all the relevant stakeholders and end users, RESILIAGE will co-shape and develop a set of digital tools and soft solutions to support first responders and public authorities, empower citizens, share more accurate and accessible information prior, during and after a natural and man-made disaster or crisis situation. These will be integrated in a digital platform, the Resource Ecosystem for Community Resilience, and validated through a holistic systemic Disaster Risk Management and multi-hazards approach in five Community Resilience labs and their networks. Results and lessons learned will provide guidelines and policy recommendations to enhance preparedness plans, SENDAI framework and strategies for Climate Change Adaptation.
