Resilient Communities In Dry Times (05/24)
Published on:

Resilience is seen as a buzzword of disaster responses. For some, “building resilience” is seen as an excuse for governments to opt out of providing support during dry times or following disruptions such as fire or flood.
Resilience involves being able to withstand, adapt to and recover from adversity, according to the Australian Local Government Association. It doesn’t necessarily mean “bouncing back” to the status quo that existed before a disruptive event such as drought.
Rather, a resilient community is able to learn from disruptive experiences and plan, adapt and change to be better able to meet future challenges.
