Community Resilience : Ability to withstand, recover and emerge even stronger following an unexpected threat It embraces the concept of awareness, detection, communication, reaction (and if possible avoidance) and recovery. ❖ Resilient cities promote sustainable development, well-being and inclusive growth. ❖ Framework provides a working definition of a resilient city, the drivers of resilience in order to better identify what resilience looks like in an urban context, and the policy mechanisms that could be of benefit.
HOW TO MAKE RESILIENT CITIES & COMMUNITIES Access to quality ,safe housing with services With monitoring of waste management & air quality Must engage everyone in planning for improvement of their cities Promote appreciation and protection o f the environment and culture Make cities resilient to disaster and adaptable to climate change. Must provide safe , organized transportation, that is not harmful to environment
4 AREAS THAT DRIVE RESILIENCE
RESILIENT OUTCOMES
PRINCIPLES OF RESILIENCE ❖ Prepared and responsive-communication ❖ Robust, secure, redundant and flexible-avoid vulnerable flood plains, forests and shorelines etc ❖ Diversity-food supplies, employment opportunities ❖ Affordable and resource efficient – affordable housing and transportation

FIRE RESILIENCE Yosemite National Park (US) Risk: • High fire frequency • Diverse mixture of fire regimes across steep elevation • An extensive urban interface (including adjacent rural communities), and relatively proximal urban populations within affected water- and airsheds. Resilience • By promoting policies at the forefront of national policy but counter to public opinion

2001 Hoover fire that burned over several previous burns in the Illilouette Creek basin.
United Kingdom Risk. • Destructive wildfires are emerging as a threat because of changes in land-use patterns combined with more and severe droughts caused by climate change. • uncontrolled fires in forests, grasslands, arable crops, and upland peats. • Wildfire can cause substantial socioeconomic disruptions, damage culturally significant landscape and structures, cause harm to biodiversity, and degrade ecosystem services. Resilience • collaboratively produce geographically detailed contingency plans developed by landowners, NGOs, multiple government sectors (emergency, fire and rescue, forestry, countryside and cultural heritage). • This includes risk assessment, the formulation of prevention measures, and incident-response preparation. • Interventions include a) landscape design principles and adaptive management changing the fuel continuity and vulnerability of economically, culturally, and biologically important assets using cultural management, planned burning, and grazing; b) (b) the reduction of accidental ignitions through the control of access and education programs; and c) (c) the establishment of firefighting infrastructure.

Projected UK forest fire danger from 2070–2100
Risk • High fire-prone environment because of extensive flammable eucalypt forests, • The dominance of inter annual droughts cycles due to the El Niño climate mode, and the disruption of an ancient tradition of Aboriginal fire management. • Urban sprawl into flammable environments and climate change compound the situation. Resilience • Maintain Appropriate Fire Regimes in Australia's Forests and Rangelands. • Balance the Environmental Impacts of Fire. • Promote Indigenous Australians’ Use of Fire. • Public Awareness and Education. • Integrated and Coordinated Decision Making and Management. • Employment, Workforce Education, and Training. • Bushfire Risk Mitigation
Principles followed by the UK Forestry Commission to promote wildfire resilience into forest design.
