Measuring flood resilience: the Zurich Flood Resilience Measurement Tool
| The Zurich Flood Resilience Measurement Tool is an innovation in community flood resilience theory and practice. Large-scale application in over 70 communities worldwide, with consistent measuring of pre-event characteristics and post-event outcomes, is generating novel empirical evidence about what really makes a community resilient to floods. To find out more about examples of how the flood resilience measurement for communities has been used on the ground, read Concern's experiences in Afghanistan https://floodresilience.net/blogs/a-flood-resilience-measurement-tool-concerns-experience-in-afghanistan Or watch a video on Red Cross Mexico's experience in Tabasco https://floodresilience.net/resources/item/praim-midiendo-la-capacidad-de-resiliencia-comunitaria-en-tabasco | |
