Resilience
active 4 years, 3 months agoThe ability of households, communities and nations to absorb and recover from shocks, whilst positively adapting and transforming their structures and means for living in the face of long-term stresses, change and uncertainty. Resilience is about addressing the root causes of crises while strengthening the capacities and resources of a system in order to cope with risks, stresses and shocks.
Helping societies to better manage risks and shocks will ensure that our development investments are not undermined or destroyed by crises. Because different types of risks (violence and conflict, natural hazards, economic shocks, etc.) and stressors (such as urbanisation and ageing populations) are complex and interlinked, humanitarian and development actors, along with states, must work together more closely to target vulnerability.
