▼ Resiliency research and implementation has become a topic of importance to academia, the US government and industry in the light of the increased number, type and frequency of natural and manmade disasters faced by communities within the United States. The term
resilience has so many definitions and methods to model or assess that the idea is almost meaningless without the context of the objectives of the research being conducted or policy being implemented. The lack of unified effort to establish or develop a coordinated resiliency improvement strategy, assessment methodology or a quantifiable prioritization framework for resource allocation makes the implementation of
resilience a difficult task, at best, for
community decision makers and infrastructure managers. This study identifies current issues with resiliency improvement or enhancement, discusses the application of technology to
resilience improvement and provides actionable recommendations to improve resiliency efforts at all levels of government.

▼ The term sustainability is one that has been critiqued as a buzzword which, although popular, holds very little meaning. The same is now being claimed with regard to the term
resilience. This research seeks to understand
community members’ interpretations of the terms
resilience and
community resilience in response to the Wellington City Council's adoption of a
resilience focused outlook. These plans assert that building the city’s
resilience is a collaborative responsibility, inclusive of both the
community and Council. With a wealth of meanings connected to the term
resilience, it is important to understand the communities’ understandings and expectations of the
resilience building process.
Joseph (2013) has critiqued the
resilience literature, highlighting that it may be used as a way for governing institutions to reduce their responsibilities and instead put the responsibility of
community resilience onto
community members. As a second research focus, this study explores participants expectations of both their and the Council’s roles in this process. Using a case study of Wellington City
community gardens, this research looks at how the current
community led initiatives influence
community resilience.
Corroborating lessons learnt from pre-existing literature, participants drew from a range of meanings to define the word
resilience. Understandings of the term
community resilience were much more cohesive. Participants highlighted an appetite for driving the process of
community resilience while designating a role characterised by support for the Wellington City Council. The case study of Wellington City
community gardens exposed that the initiatives contribute to
community resilience through the enhancement of bridging and linking social capital as well as through providing access to human resources, such as skills, knowledge and networks. Although
community gardens also provided some physical resources i.e. produce, land, buildings, tools, etc., this area still requires further development.

▼ The greater Baton Rouge area in Louisiana has been impacted by repeated floods throughout its history. The most recent flood in August 2016 resulted in damages to over 80,000 homes and businesses and upwards of $430 million in public assistance granted by the Federal Emergency Management Agency. East Baton Rouge Parish and neighboring Livingston and Ascension parishes are expected to face compounded pressures and risks with the threat of increasing frequency of flood events coupled with expanding populations due to continuing suburbanization and inland migration from those living on Louisiana's coast. The purpose of this research is to create and validate an index to measure community resilience to flooding across Ascension, East Baton Rouge, and Livingston parishes from 1983- 2016. Using a combination of environmental and socioeconomic variables, the index is applied to three different years where historic and devastating flooding has occurred in the region: 1983, 1993, and 2016. A brief history of suburban sprawl, flood mitigation strategies, and land use changes provides a framework to measure the efficacy of the index. This historic perspective allows for a better understanding of how capacity for building resilience has evolved, and how we might expect it to progress in the future. This research helps understand how community resilience has changed over time after repeated flood events. Furthermore, this will help quantify the components that lend themselves to community resilience, so that future natural hazards may be recognized and their harmful effects may be mitigated.

▼ When the devastating 6.3 magnitude earthquake hit Christchurch, Aotearoa New Zealand, at 12.51pm on 22nd February 2011, the psychological and physical landscape was irrevocably changed. In the days and weeks following the disaster communities were isolated due to failed infrastructure, continuing aftershocks and the extensive search and rescue effort which focussed resources on the central business district. In such moments the
resilience of a
community is truly tested. This research discusses the role of grassroots
community groups in facilitating
community resilience during the Christchurch 2010/11 earthquakes and the role of place in doing so. I argue that place specific strategies for urban
resilience need to be enacted from a grassroots level while being supported by broader policies and agencies.
Using a case study of Project Lyttelton – a group aspiring towards a resilient sustainable future who were caught at the epicentre of the February earthquake – I demonstrate the role of a
community group in creating
resilience through self-organised place specific action during a disaster. The group provided emotional care, basic facilities and rebuilding assistance to the residents of Lyttelton, proving to be an invaluable asset. These actions are closely linked to the characteristics of social support and social learning that have been identified as important to socio-ecological
resilience. In addition this research will seek to understand and explore the nuances of place and identity and its role in shaping
resilience to such dis-placing events. Drawing on
community narratives of the displacement of place identity, the potential for a progressive sense of place as instigated by local groups will be investigated as an avenue for adaptation by communities at risk of disaster and place destabilisation.

▼ The purpose of this thesis research was to understand the recovery and
resilience of wetland-
community to flash flood disasters and its associated risks in the north-eastern part of Bangladesh. I conducted my study using a case study approach following an interdisciplinary research paradigm. It was found that wetland-
community is extremely vulnerable to flash flood hazards - both in biophysical and social terms. However, they possess certain coping thresholds, and are resilient to disaster losses. The adaptive capacity of the local communities has been severely curbed by a number of socio-ecological, economic, and political factors, leading to natural resource degradation, marginalization and exclusion of the poor from common pool resources by powerful groups. Response capacities of local institutions were severely constrained by their limited relative autonomy. For building
resilience, i) effective management and access of the poor to natural resources, and ii) enhancing autonomy of local institutions are required.

▼ Rural Cornish coastal fishing communities express, and have expressed, varying degrees of ability to develop and retain social resilience capacity, or the ability to withstand ‘shock’ over both ‘fast’ and ‘slow’ onset events in social, political, economic and natural domain terms (Wilson, 2012a). Endogenous and exogenous influences may include natural changes in resources and resource dependency resulting in the loss or depletion of community livelihoods associated with a decline in fishing activities (Brookfield, 2005; Marshall, 2007a), issues of tourism driven change and notions of ‘community’. Four capitals are initially conceptually considered, those of natural, political, social and economic capitals driving institutional change and individual-community behaviour within fishing communities. This is considered for fishing activities and cross-community aspirational or extant forms of resilience building with a particular focus on social memory, community-personal identity (Wilson, 2012b; Wilson, 2013; Wilson, 2014) and critically, power (Chaskin, 2001). This research frames community resilience within a resilience framework on local, national and EU scales. The initial capital approach is further developed and articulated into a novel resilience status and process framework, the community resilience and vulnerability index, or the CRVI. The research fieldwork observes social resilience through empirical qualitative methods supported by an anthropological lens, especially in regard to social issues, trust, confidence, power and agency within fishing communities and trajectories that have been guided by internal and external influences and adaptive change to social networks. One of the research challenges was the building of the CRVI using coupled approaches to coping strategies that may have value both across the Cornish case study communities and into wider community usage.

▼ Communities are taking action to address different types of change and shape their own future to enable a desirable state. Yet a critical understanding of the relationship between collective action and community resilience is not fully elaborated. This thesis enriches community resilience research by examining attributes of community and how the attributes interact with collective action to promote three constituent components of community resilience: that is specific resilience, general resilience, and transformative capacity, defined here as ability to envisage and plan for the future. This study undertakes research in Wadebridge, north Cornwall, UK, and Sedgefield, western Cape, South Africa. These coastal towns represent emerging complexities of change, both with a history of collective action and communities fragmented by identity and demographic divisions. Focus groups, semi-structured key informant interviews and participatory scenario planning are used to elicit different resident perspectives on community and ability to promote specific and general resilience and transformative capacity. The results suggest four key attributes of community: resident identity, trust, interests around collective action and differential ability and power to affect change. Incomers, who are a particular type of lifestyle migrant, act as catalysts promoting collective action for specific resilience, which builds capacity for incomers to address known hazards. But there is significant difference between incomers and other resident groupings that reinforces social divisions. Collective action that enables general resilience reconfigures to bring distinct residents together to share resources and build trust, allowing more residents to positively address different shocks and disturbances and provide an entry point to negotiate the future. Residents understand transformative capacity also requires fundamentally changing social structures, power relations and identity-related roles. The implications of the results are that incorporating the influence of lifestyle mobility into community resilience research increases explanation of the way in which communities are being reshaped and the role of individuals in promoting collective action for different constituent components of community resilience. Collective action conferring general resilience is shaped by individual capacity and networks, rather than collective capacity, with individuals interlinking responses to specific and general resilience together.

▼ Thailand’s Bangkok has experienced rapid population growth and subsequent expansion over recent decades. It has resulted in an unintentional increase in vulnerability within rural-residential and metropolis areas. Flood prevention strategies, such as dams, irrigation canals, and flood detention basin, and Kaem Ling ‘Green belt Embankment’, have been slowly built and activated in response to this suburban catastrophe (Vanno). In recent years, King Rama IX of Thailand, initiated Kaem Ling’s, ‘Monkey’s Cheek’s’ project; a reference to the common parable of an intelligent monkey storing its food in its saggy cheeks rather than swallowing. This has allowed the Western and Eastern suburbs of Bangkok to function as waterways, diverting the destructive water paths away to protect the metropolis.
Beginning in July 2011, a significant rainfall from the highlands of Thailand flooded down to Bangkok. With affected areas lying less than 10 metres above mean sea level and some as low as 1.5 metres, some areas remained flooded until January 2012. By October, the inundated metropolitan Bangkok began to negatively impact on industries, such as computers and automotive. Both critical supply networks for other manufacturing operations outside of Thailand. This ‘vulnerability’ where the inter-connectedness of economies could mean the closing of factories and manufacturing assembly lines in one country because of a flooding disaster in another had not been recognised.
The 2011 Thailand’s flooding death tolls surpassed 815 deaths (with 3 missing), affected 13.6 million people and classed 65 of Thailand’s 77 provinces as flood disaster zones (Benfield, 2012). During the extreme environmental activity, decisions were made to close several district gates in last-ditch efforts for protecting the metropolitan areas. This caused many other peri-urban areas of Bangkok to flood. These suburban areas were intended to act as waterways to protect the metropolis, but instead became a reservoir. Nimitmai 40 Road, situated in Khlong Sam Wa district, was in the middle of the 2011 flooding zones became the locus and main area of interest in this research.
Several initial studies, of precedence and technical data, explored objectives of building
resilience in response to flooding and
community. This research further utilised field study surveys, interviews, and case studies, all of which provided a wealth of information and contextual material. They contributed to design propositions developed through a series of critical reflections.
This research aimed to build
community resilience, encapsulating spiritual elements in cultural and psychosocial elements of suburban Thai community’s livelihood and to provide flood
resilience through both non-technical and technical solutions. Final outcomes of the design iterations suggested a merging of Thai monastery and
community centre as a spiritual anchor for the community’s
resilience and strengthen my neighbourhood’s sense of place.

▼ This Thesis presents ethnographic data collected through multi-sector, multi-level purposive sampling in a longitudinal qualitative case study between 2008 and 2010. A pilot study had discovered the changing role of government in building capacity for responses to civil emergencies, against a context of changing risks and resources for UK Emergency Management. The Thesis explored the increasing involvement of non-statutory agencies by focussing on the ‘Third Sector’: voluntary, charitable, faith, or community organisations and communities. The Thesis reports (1) the relationship between multi-organisational arrangements and resilience, (2) the role of Third Sector organisations in implementing resilience, and (3) the role of the Third Sector in community resilience. (1) The data suggested that the process of implementing resilience involved operationalising the resilience concept as a philosophy for Integrated Emergency Management [IEM], and consequent changes to the governance and organisation of Scottish and UK emergency management. The research linked the role of the Third Sector in resilience and community resilience to the dynamic between preparedness and response. It explored (2) the impact of implementing resilience on organising and organisations in the Third Sector, and (3) policy development and capacity-building for an emergent role in community resilience. The Thesis makes a distinctive contribution to the discipline of Public Management. Firstly, the findings represent a novel empirical and theoretical contribution regarding the role of the Third Sector in community resilience and in the resilience paradigm of emergency management. This data is used to extend existing theory about the proactive role of Third Sector organisations in collaborative emergency management. Secondly, the Thesis argues that the meso-level of analysis is neglected in the emerging field of resilience studies. Network and collaboration theory in Public Management are used to make a novel theoretical contribution, describing the relationship between multi-organisational arrangements and the operationalisation of ‘resilient’ emergency management. Thirdly, the Thesis contributes to the study of collaborative emergency management from this longitudinal perspective. This data is used to extend our understanding of (a) the applicability of Public Management theory to this context and (b) the relevance of data from this context to theories of collaborative public management.

▼ Natural disasters such as flooding often affect vast areas and create infinite demands that need to be addressed in the same time. The wide scopes and severe impacts of such catastrophes often exceed, if not overwhelm, capacity of the national government to handle. In such a situation, communities such as cities and neighborhoods need to rely on their own capacity (resources, strategies, and expertise) to respond to disaster impacts at least until external assistance can be reached. Thus, studying how communities can be resilient to the impacts of natural disasters is important because this would enhance their ability to respond to the next disaster better. Within the context of great flooding in Thailand in 2011, this dissertation investigated the factors that generated or enhanced
resilience of flood stricken-communities in Thailand. Nakhonswan City Municipality was selected as the research site. Qualitative research methods were employed in this study. Data were collected using in-depth interview and focus group. Thirty-six participants (28 for in-depth interview and 8 for focus group interview) from various organizations were recruited using snowball and purposive sampling strategies. Interview data from the field research were transcribed, translated from Thai language to English, and then analyzed using open coding and focused coding strategies. Analyses of in-depth interview data revealed eight conceptual themes representing factors that constituted
resilience of Nakhonsawan City Municipality, as the leading organization responded to the flood. These factors are: availability of resources for
resilience; managerial adaptability; crisis leadership; quality workforce; knowledge sharing and learning; organizational preparedness; organizational integration; and sectoral integration. In addition, findings from the focus group interview with members of three strong neighborhoods found eight factors that helped these neighborhoods respond effectively to the flood crisis. They included: self-reliance; cooperation; local wisdom; preparedness; internal support; external support; crisis adaptability; and pre-disaster social cohesion. This dissertation ended with the discussion of implications, limitations and suggestions for future research.

Navigating the transition to community college :

▼ The transition of Latina community college students
warrants further interest from the research community and this
study aims to fill a gap in the research by examining the
transition experiences from the voices of Latina community college
students. The purpose of this qualitative study was to understand
Latina community college students’ transition experiences. The
theoretical framework utilized was Interculturalism (Tanaka, 2002).
The study involved the participation of eight Latina community
college students from an urban/suburban community college, in
addition to the participation of an administrator and staff member
from the same college. Data collection involved individual
interviews, focus groups and non-participatory observations at an
urban/suburban community college in New York State. The data was
analyzed utilizing the multiple case study analysis method.
Findings indicated that transitioning to community college is a
subjective experience, thus transition has been redefined by
Latinas as they transition to college. Latina community college
students experience transitioning to college individually and
uniquely over varying periods of time resulting in the finding that
Latina community college students challenge the traditional concept
of transition to community college. Findings also indicated that
Latinas are burdened with non-credit courses and program
misplacement during transition to community college resulting in
embarrassment, frustration, lack of motivation and often delaying
program acceptance and degree attainment. Findings also indicated
that Latinas experience racism on campus and as a result become
silent indicating a silence to resilience pathway. Silence occurs
in two ways: (1) Latinas are forced to be silent, and/or (2)
Latinas choose to be silent, both of which lead to resilience. The
pathway involves four phases which Latinas encounter: (1)
Experience racism, (2) Emotional reactions, (3) Responses: silence
and resilience, and (4) Outcomes. A process of identity
transitioning occurs along the continuum of these phases. An
additional finding involves Latina students applying multiple types
of strategies as they transition to college including behavioral
modifications in class and on campus, adopting new study habits,
and social involvement. Lastly, the primary support network for
Latina community college students are their
families.

▼ Socially vulnerable populations are often concentrated in flood vulnerable urban areas, resulting in multiple cultural, economic, and ecological issues. Sunnyside, a 4096 acre historically African-American
community in Houston, Texas, faces the issues of flooding hazards, high percentage of vacant lands, and low quality of life. Sixteen percent of the neighborhood falls within the 100- and 500-year floodplains, with frequent stormwater settling and ponding; 22% of the neighborhood lots are currently either vacant or abandoned due to population migrations. In addition, there is a significant lack of open spaces and
community facilities in the vicinity. Thus, the study explores how urban regeneration of vacant lands can seek to enhance revitalization and
resilience in the
community.
Through four months of public engagement, this research-design study incorporates citizen-driven decision making for identifying the existing issues and future goals. The study then develops a toolbox to reclaim existing vacant lands, depending on each lot’s type, size, location, and flood vulnerability. An ArcGIS land suitability analysis with the parameters of elevation, slope, land cover, and existing building footprint is conducted to identify the most suitable vacant lands for future green infrastructure. A 202 acres site is used as a case site to apply Low Impact Development urban design facilities for regulating stormwater and providing active and passive recreation. Integrating green infrastructure within a majority of vacant lands in the neighborhood allows for absorption and infiltration of stormwater before channeling it to the nearby Sims Bayou, and creates an open space network for a healthier
community. The rest of the vacant lands are transformed into spatial functions according to identified
community needs.
For design implementation, the first phase focuses on creating a green infrastructure skeleton to alleviate flood issues, the second phase implements major
community facilities as anchor points to spur future development, and the third phase concentrates on infilling housing and new job creation. The design impact analysis projects a significant increase in regeneration of the existing underutilized spaces and decreases in impervious surfaces in the neighborhood, and allows for building capacity and involvement in the
community planning process as well.

▼ This research is an attempt to apply a
resilience framework to understand how pastoral social-ecological systems respond to change, and the potential role of formal CBRM institutions in this process. The
resilience principles of Folke, Colding & Berkes (2003): 1) learning to live with change and uncertainty, 2) nurturing diversity for reorganization and renewal, 3) combining different types of knowledge for learning and 4) creating opportunity for self-organization toward social-ecological sustainability were assessed in two pairs of adjacent herding communities with and without
community-based rangeland management (CBRM) experience. The social-ecological systems in both CBRM and non-CBRM herding communities demonstrated that their capacities to respond to crisis and disturbances are deeply embedded in local knowledge, practices, and social networks.
Community-based rangeland management communities have shown potentials to facilitate adaptation and
resilience building if such organizations are based on and further develop existing cooperation of customary neighborhoods.
Community-based rangeland management offers structures that contemporary pastoral society needs to have in place to stimulate new learning for constructive change. As part
resilience building for Mongolian pastoral social-ecological systems, I propose linking the
resilience framework to the meaningful local nutag wisdom or framework to inform national and international stakeholders about locally appropriate or nutag appropriate strategies and approaches to natural resource management and rural development.

▼ The development of frameworks that account for
community stability and its loss to environmental disturbance (e.g. regime shifts) is central to ecology, particularly for reducing uncertainty of ecological change in increasingly variable environments. Notably,
community responses to disturbance often appear abrupt and surprising, raising concerns for our ability to anticipate and manage such regime shifts. In this thesis, I explore the conceptual model that compensatory dynamics may negate the effects of disturbance prior to
community restructure (i.e. changes in species composition) and that their recognition may advance our ability to anticipate loss of stability. I examine the idea that the failure to recognise the weakening of mechanisms of resistance to intensifying disturbance underpins the surprise of regime shifts. My assessment centred on a plant-herbivore interaction (herbivorous gastropods-turf algae) that counters the loss of kelp forests to competitors (turf expansion) as driven by abiotic disturbances that coalescence across multiple scales of space (global to local) and time (gradual to abrupt). My tests of the hypothesis that herbivores negate the positive effects of abiotic change on turf production suggested that ecological systems might compensate for disturbance via mechanisms that prevent structural changes. Whilst global (carbon enrichment) and local abiotic change (nutrient enrichment) may drive shifts in ecological systems by altering dominance relationships between competing species (e.g. shifts from kelp- to turf-dominated reefs), adjustments in strength of herbivory appeared to negate such change. My tests suggested that resistance to change may result from the aggregate effects of individual responses (per capita consumption) where these generate dynamics that prevent change in
community processes (productivity). Such dynamics may be underpinned by the necessity of individuals to maintain homeostasis in varying environments. Critically, combinations of gradual (warming) and abrupt abiotic change (heat waves) appeared to disrupt these buffering mechanisms and resulted in rapid loss of resistance. Further tests indicated that, if we are to anticipate the extent of ecological change, we may not only have to consider spatial and temporal variability in abiotic conditions, but also biotic processes that might increase the range of variation in ecological responses. Overall, these results suggest that, if we understand compensatory dynamics as mechanisms of resistance to the effects of disturbance (i.e. that prevent
community restructure), we may not only improve predictions of
community change, but also be able to prevent undesirable change in the first place. Critically, our ability to manage for ecological change cannot only rely on building
resilience, but needs to move towards a more explicit consideration of resistance mechanisms; such shift in thinking is necessary to fully understand how ecological communities respond to disturbance. Assessments of how fine-scale responses (individual and…

▼ Continuous large scale flooding in Manitoba cannot be successfully dealt with by the typical compensation of losses based disaster management approach. The rising cost has even led to a deficit in the provincial budgets in recent years. Using Susan Cutter's “hazard-of-place” model on the collected primary data (using Delphi technique), and by integrating them with the secondary data, the vulnerability of place to flood was measured. The research reveals that, with current disaster management approach, vulnerability is increasing; nourishing social capital has immense potentiality to enhance
community resilience to flooding. As inventory of tentative loss and risk estimation is a must for comprehensive disaster management, the prospect of the HAZUS model was explored using proxy data. It was found that HAZUS has the potentiality to estimate disaster costs in dollar values. For a key strategic tool, the research recommends developing the HAZUS model with an up-to-date Canadian database.

▼ Since the establishment of Pinochet’s dictatorship and its neoliberal experiment in 1973, Chile has experienced unprecedented growth in an increasingly resource-extractive economy, often through the expropriation and exploitation of the traditional territories of peasant farmers and the Indigenous Mapuche people. Through a lens of resilience, this study explores how the political and economic landscape of the country shapes rural livelihoods in six communities across two regions, as well as its implications for resilience at the community level. At the same time, it seeks to uncover how rural peoples actively respond to these threats and foster resilience within their households and communities, with a particular focus on efforts to preserve traditional food practices and related struggles for autonomy over local resources and food systems. In looking at how producers strategically form alliances and engage in networks that often extend beyond their traditional local spaces, this thesis concludes that resilience strategies are more effective when they do not remain within community boundaries but are instead trans-scalar in nature. It argues that these network strategies are instrumental for producers in the defence of their territories and their sovereignty over rural food systems as well as in the collective assertion of their own ideals of development and food production in both national and global political spheres.

▼ Community resilience is an important component of long- term planning for a town or a city. Resilience generally refers to the ability of a system or a community to withstand a disruption and to recover from a disruption, but specific definitions and measures for resilience can vary widely from researcher to research or from discipline to discipline. Community resilience is often measured using a set of indicators based on census, socioeconomic, and community organizational data, but little research has attempted to assess how closely these measures correlate with a community’s ability to withstand or recover from a disruption. Engineering resilience metrics often are based on the “resilience triangle” concept. The resilience triangle assesses the loss in performance for a system and the time until the system’s performance returns to its pre-disruption (or a better) state. Although these concepts can be applied to community resilience, determining appropriate metrics for the performance of a community remains a difficult challenge. This research proposes to measure community resilience based on value-focused thinking. We propose an objectives hierarchy that begins with a community decision makers' fundamental values or objectives for community resilience. Each of these five objectives is further broken down into measurable attributes that focus on specific outcomes that a decision maker would like to achieve if a disruption occurs. Since these attributes are very diverse and have different units, value functions can be used to assess the contribution of each attribute toward the overall resilience.

▼ The urban form of the kgotla is a distinct kind of organisation of residences commonly found in rural and regional towns of Botswana. Major features include; clustering of residences in a semi-circular form of arrangement, common access, shared open space and the cattle kraal. The urban form evolved over many years to meet the needs of the communities for whom living was integral to sharing. In recent decades, regional areas began to be reshaped for participation in more global ways of life. Nonetheless, studies that focus on the potential contribution of the urban form and the resilience of the community, although remain an important and prominent feature of regional towns are little researched. Studies in this area largely focus upon human relations within the organisational form. In contrast, this study departs from the human orientated perspective as it explores the relationships between the spatial qualities of the urban form and sharing practices to understand how the interactions of diverse human-non-human actors contribute to community resilience. Specifically, the study serves to explore how traditional urban environment can support the resilience of the community by encouraging and strengthening multiple interactions in the way people are operating in sharing practices. The study is built on three part research questions; 1) Are sharing practices active? 2) In what ways does traditional urban fabric support these sharing practices? and 3) how can community resilience be an effect produced by the interactions in sharing practices? Three sharing practices explored in this study, namely; sharing decision-making, sharing experiences and sharing labour based on special activities, rather than everyday activities.
The study draws upon actor-network theory and those who have build upon it to give equal weight to both human and nonhuman participants in the urban environment. The study applied actor-network orientated research methods in tracing the relationships. The methods used include; discourse analysis; photographic materials of sharing activities during fieldwork as well as from journal articles and the Internet; participant observation of naturally occurring activities; focus group discussion and in-depth interview with key participants in their residences. The methods used allowed me to explore many actors that may otherwise be forgotten or excluded during data collection. The actors were also traced in the analysis.
The study establishes that, firstly; sharing practices are active, an important kind of performance of the community and that each of the practice help build a sense of belonging within the community. Second, the urban form provides an environment within which all sharing practices flourish. The study contributes to the scholarly research community by showing that some of the spatial qualities of the urban form, which are traditionally considered to be important in cultural activities, could actually be omitted or replaced without impacting upon the significance of sharing. Lastly, the study…

▼ As many as 2 million lakes are estimated to be in Canada that provide beneficial ecosystem services to society such as clean drinking water and freshwater fisheries. However, anthropogenic disturbances on the landscape threaten the delivery of these services and pose questions regarding the maintenance of lake systems to future change. Understanding and quantifying the resistance and resilience of lake systems to disturbance is therefore a priority. The objectives of this thesis are to: 1) develop a quantitative framework for characterizing the resistance and resilience of ecosystems to disturbance; and, 2) quantify the relative resistance and resilience of freshwater lakes in Ontario to anthropogenic disturbance. I begin with a simulation study to demonstrate how distance-based measures in ordination space can provide a framework for characterizing the relative resistance and resilience of systems to disturbance. I then apply the distance-based approach to long-term monitoring data of crustacean zooplankton communities and associated water chemistry data from 19 lakes in Ontario subjected to varying levels of acidification. I show that most zooplankton communities lack resistance to change over time, whether affected by acidification or not, and that water chemistry is changing among all the lakes studied. Finally, I approach resilience from a functional diversity perspective and quantify the functional redundancy of Ontario lake fish communities across the province and relate these patterns to biogeographic and environmental variables. My results demonstrate patterns of redundancy among freshwater fish communities provincially, however, these patterns varied regionally. Overall, this body of work provides a multidimensional approach for characterizing the resistance and resilience of freshwater ecosystems to anthropogenic disturbance that can be applied across systems (e.g., terrestrial, marine, freshwater) and scales (e.g., species, community, ecosystem).

▼ The tourism and resources sectors are two of Australia’s largest sectors, both significantly contributing to the national economy (Pham, Bailey, & Spurr, 2013a). Both have shaped regional development in Australia by redefining the economic and social structure of communities (Bebbington, et al., 2008; Cheer, 2013; Kumral, & Onder, 2012). Yet, the tourism and resources sectors are major forces of structural change that can dramatically impact regions, communities and the environment (Farrell, & Twining-Ward, 2004; Tonts, Plummer, & Lawrie, 2012). Although change is an inevitable process (Davoudi et al., 2012), the prominence of economic structural change within many Australian regions is shifting attention to the management of change within community systems (Connolly & Lewis, 2010).
The change management literature for regional development has presented a number of theories to deal with and respond to economic structural change, such as Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) and Sustainable Development (Kretzmann & McKnight, 2007; So, 1990). However, such approaches have been criticised for not always considering the process of long-term structural change. Resilience is an emerging change management theory, which focuses on how change can be leveraged to achieve the most desirable outcome (Holling & Gunderson, 2002; Masten, 2001).
Resilience has been extensively applied as a change management approach within regional communities, stemming from a range of disciplinary interpretations. From a socio-ecological perspective, resilience applications often focus on crisis and disaster situations which encompass rapid forces of change. However, limited literature is available exploring resilience approaches to manage regional development and long-term structural change. The literature postulates that applications of resilience are limited, given the complexity of the term resilience and the limited availability of instruments to measure resilience to different forces of change (Holladay & Powell, 2012). Furthermore, there is minimal research that examines regional development strategies by considering these two sectors simultaneously within a single community. By examining the dimensions of community resilience and the process of long-term structural change, this research aims to explore how resilience can be harnessed to address long-term structural change driven by the tourism and resources sectors in Australia as both sectors create opportunity and disruption.
This research employed a quantitative, sequential mixed mode approach using two case studies. Through this method, the research seeks to devise an instrument to measure community resilience to long-term structural change. Using the developed instrument, the research then seeks to measure the resilience of different community segments, as well as explore possible guidelines to build resilience within the two regions, through the use of a resident survey.
The results of this research have led to the development of instruments to measure resilience to long-term…

▼ Tornadoes pose a significant threat to life and buildings, especially residential buildings, causing an average of $8 billion per year in damage and numerous casualties. The dominant form of single-family residential buildings in the United States is light-frame wood construction. In this study, light-frame buildings threatened by tornadoes are analyzed from a life cycle perspective intended to identify post-tornado repair strategies that are resilient, economic and sustainable. The life cycle framework takes into account the randomness in tornado occurrences for an individual building, and both randomness in tornado occurrence and tornado footprint for a residential
community. Capacities for the building structure and envelope are modeled by fragility functions, which were developed for three building archetypes that are assumed to be representative of housing practices in the U.S. Along with the repairs due to hazard, the methodology also incorporates the regular repair and maintenance that occur during the life of the building. This research provides a framework for integrating minimum cost and carbon footprint objectives into a single decision-making process, a topic that appears to be lacking in the literature. It shows how a balance between
resilience, sustainability and cost might be achieved in an individual building and how those ideas might help in decision-making and policy formation for homeowners, home builders and
community planners at a
community level.

▼ This thesis examines how Black residents in the Mississippi Delta claim and deploy agency and resiliency in a rural
community context entrenched in a legacy of oppression. Black, low-income communities are implicitly labeled non-resilient when macro-level
community capitals and resiliency literature are applied. However, I find that resiliency is culturally distinctive and oftentimes detected in ritual, daily processes in Black communities. This thesis rejects dominant narratives that Black communities in Mississippi are only poor, backwards, and lacking. It questions the assumption that dominant institutions have created inescapable boundaries for Black people in this region and challenges the notion that the current and past economic exploitations by dominant White elites determine the lives and identities of Black people. The research question for this thesis is straightforward—what are Black people doing and saying in their daily lives that counter the cultural deficit language imposed on the Delta region? Through this question, I explore what agency looks like for Black students, and how they re-define
resilience through skepticism and frustration. Black students in the Mississippi Delta exercise human agency, defined as pre-existing practices of knowledge that empower collectives and individuals in the pursuit of their goals and values deemed important, through cultural and educational capital enriched by freedom schools and
community members (Bourdieu 1984; Sen 1999).The findings consisted of three themes that described the teacher-student encounters in relation to students’ learning at the freedom project and the local public school. The first narrative,
Encounters between the teacher and student, described a latent awareness of the students’ position in Rosedale’s and the Delta’s unique history. The second narrative,
Students as critical thinkers/sociologists, described how the students are already practitioners, and the third narrative, Space and exclusion, described the students’ awareness of what
community means by living in the Mississippi Delta. Each theme provided evidence that Black students have created
resilience by rejecting dominant perspectives about their lives, consistently shaped and re-shaped
community to promote resiliency building and activated their own agency to overcome structural problems in their
community.

▼ Understood generally,
community resilience is the ability of communities to adapt, absorb, mitigate, and recover from shocks and stressors in such a way that facilitates positive future outcomes and reduces overall vulnerability to future shocks and stressors (Adger, 2000; Norris, Stevens, Pfefferbaum, Wyche & Pfefferbaum, 2008; USAID, 2013; Walker et al., 2004). The core of this definition relates to sustainability and the capability of socio-ecological systems and communities to adapt and transform to both day to day fluctuations and stressors as well as major disasters (Milman & Short, 2008; Walker et al., 2004). This meta-study seeks to shed light on how the large body of international development literature addresses, measures, and operationalizes
community resilience. This analysis uses two
resilience frameworks to understand and codify dominant themes in
community resilience to assess whether the international development literature is holistically studying
community resilience: touching upon nutrition, food security, economic security, and ecological sustainability.

▼ Community-level
resilience has become an important consideration for city planners, policymakers, and other decision-makers, and therefore, it is increasingly investigated by engineering researchers. The robustness of the built environment and interconnectedness of the social system are important factors affecting
community-level
resilience that need further investigation. Recent research and studies show a need for the buildings to stay operational to preserve the quality of life after a disruptive event [Sattar et al. (2018)]. Disasters cause significant disruption to social institutions, the local economy, and overall quality of life due to damage to buildings and other civil infrastructures.

community functions mainly between buildings and organizations, is a significant part of the motivation behind this research. There are seven types of capital inherent in a
community: financial, political, social, human, cultural, natural, and built [Flora et al. (2008)]. This work advances the current state of knowledge in the relationship between buildings (a subset of built capital) and organizations throughout a
community through a novel quantitative framework based on the seven
community capitals. This thesis proposes a two-tiered approach, where one tier is performed at a
community-level, and other tier is performed at a building-level and then integrated to measure post-disaster
community capital losses. The
community-level losses were measured using a novel scoring system based on keywords defining each
community capital capturing changes in each
community capital induced by building damage. The second tier measures building-level losses including number of damaged buildings as a proxy for built capital, dislocation rates for social capital, morbidity rates for human capital, accessibility changes for political capital, and repair costs for financial capital. The framework is exemplified on a virtual
community, Centerville, under an earthquake scenario. Centerville is comprised of multiple building types with varying robustness [Ellingwood et al. (2016)]. Occupancies that are used to assemble the building inventory of Centerville include residential, commercial and industrial, as well as critical facilities such as hospitals, fire stations, schools, and government offices modeled using 16 building archetypes. The
community is also comprised of a synthetic population with varied attributes linked to social vulnerability and
resilience. The framework presented is hazard-generic, however for demonstration the hazard considered for this thesis is seismic and is adapted from Lin and Wang (2016). Disaster impact measurements are examined across the building portfolio for the earthquake scenario at different points in time to support comparisons. Although earthquake demand and some measures of
community capital remain ill-defined, the proposed framework demonstrates the relative importance of including
community capitals in loss estimation models to calculate
community-level…

▼ This research documents a scientific and systematic analysis of
community resilience, as demonstrated through the experience of
disaster response and recovery in Australia. It focuses on rural
and regional communities affected by natural disasters including
fire, flood or cyclone. Its aim is to identify whether the
people within affected communities lead their community recovery
process, what key factors influence that process, whether
community leadership is demonstrated during and after disasters,
and what lessons can be learned by listening to the lived
experience of community members.
Australia’s disaster management policy framework has at its
core the National Strategy for Disaster Resilience (2011), agreed
by the Council of Australian Governments (COAG). At all levels
in the Australian government and non-government sectors, disaster
management policies and frameworks emphasize the central role of
communities in disaster recovery, arguing that successful
recovery engages communities and empowers community members to
lead their own recovery. Such ‘community led recovery’ is
advocated widely, however a systematic literature review has
revealed little published scientific research about the community
experience of disaster recovery, whether ‘community led
recovery’ is a reality or a myth, or how to build resilient
communities.
This research investigated different perceptions and experiences
of natural disasters in communities in Australia; identifying
factors considered by the participants to be important to
community resilience and recovery, and describing specific
actions community members and others take to help themselves and
one another. This study gathers data from two different groups:
initially by interviewing ten individuals who have held disaster
recovery leadership roles; and then by conducting fieldwork in
four communities across eastern Australia, interviewing 112
community members.
Both groups described their understanding of the key domains of
community adaptation or recovery after natural disaster. They
described the factors that support or hinder that process of
community recovery, within each of these domains. Both groups
described their observations and experiences of what occurs
within disaster affected communities. In particular community
members described their own actions and the actions of others.
Clear findings emerge from the analysis of this data. It reveals
substantial evidence of the presence and effectiveness of
community leadership, and the significant contribution of
community actions and activities in strengthening and supporting
community resilience and recovery after natural disaster. It
identifies lessons that can be learned from communities affected
by disaster. These lessons emphasise the importance of what

▼ As Toronto’s low-income areas grow, the city’s neighbourhoods experience a segregation by low- and high-income, contributing to chronic stress as environmental determinants and leading to negative health outcomes and chronic diseases. This study identified Crescent Town as one of the Toronto neighbourhoods with potentially high levels of chronic emotional stress through an analysis of emotions indicated by Tweets, as well as triangulation with administrative data describing relevant neighbourhood indicators. Crescent Town community members (n=23) were engaged using concept mapping to identify existing neighbourhood stressors and assets and empowered to strategize solutions. The ten-cluster solution created with six clusters describing neighbourhood stressors and four clusters describing neighbourhood assets resulted in two potential strategies, a Crescent Town Residents’ Association and a community fair to promote neighbourhood resources and build social networks. This piloted methodology ultimately cultivated an opportunity for neighbourhood members to continue collaboratively planning asset-based solutions for resiliency and stress.
