Creating more equitable approaches to urban resilience requires new forms of knowledge production, new decision-making methods, new conceptualizations of power and governance, and new urban and architectural design typologies aimed at solving the unique, highly situated challenges faced by the most vulnerable. As these innovative forms of new knowledge emerge, the Equitable Resilience Portal aims to gather these key concepts, insights, case studies and resources on the topics: Forms of Power; Community-based Resilience; Resilience Practices (In-place and Through Relocation). The portal will act as a living resource, continually evolving as this field develops in theory and in practice. Join us on Friday 6-May to learn more!
