Community Resilience

Community Resilience is the capacity to live sustainably by coming together in a way that strengthens how we adapt to change, enhance wellbeing and build social cohesion. There are many ways communities can take action to equip themselves to cope with crisis and encourage social inclusion.

Volunteering and community involvement are key components for building resilience, creating opportunities for people to communicate and engage with others, repair the environment, support cultural activities, address the challenges of climate change and prepare for disasters.
