Disaster Resilience Presentations and Events
Presentations
The presentations below were given by MCEER-funded investigators at the 2006 Annual Meeting. The meeting devoted a day to defining the concept of resilience, and exploring fundamental resilience metrics – robustness, redundancy, resourcefulness and rapidity – by which disaster resilience can be better measured and improved.
