In times of crisis—whether caused by disasters, political turmoil, armed conflict, or climate change—resilience is key to maintaining well-being. Rather than merely enduring these challenges, we can use them as opportunities to build strength and adaptability at societal, community, and individual levels.
Research in this area examines how people and systems respond to crises, identifying ways to enhance coping mechanisms and improve long-term resilience. By focusing on both psychological and social factors, this work seeks to bolster well-being, ensuring that communities can not only recover but emerge stronger after facing adversities.
The objectives of our research include:
Investigating how resilience can mitigate the impact of crises, from political and social to environmental and armed conflicts
Developing strategies that enhance well-being and adaptability during disasters and turbulent times
Collaborating across nations to share innovative approaches and best practices for building resilience in diverse contexts
