Resilience Talks – Preliminary insights on Resilience from the COVID-19 experience

Published by Daniele Del Bianco on

As we are entering “phase 2” of the COVID-19 pandemic, are there any preliminary lessons to be learnt learnt on resilience? How was “Phase 1” managed in small communities? Should existing response mechanisms be re-thought? Has risk perception changed in the different phases of the pandemic? Have people become weary of “resilience” as a concept?…

These are but few of the questions that are tackled in the video-interview on COVID-19 and Resilience held on the 10th of June between ISIG researchers and Furio Dutto, RESILOC Advisory Board Member.

Furio Dutto, geologist, is the Former Head of the Civil Protection Service of the Turin Metropolitan Area (Piedmont Region, Italy). Throughout his career, he has promoted the active engagement of Local Authorities and Communities in the Civil Protection mechanism, aiming to involve volunteers and citizens both at operational and decision-making levels. He is currently managing several EU funded projects on the issues of civil protection and community resilience.

Catania – Validation Workshops

The goal of the research activity is to collect and evaluate the results of the three workshops of phase one. This will be carried out through a questionnaire (Validation tool 1.1) that is organised in two parts (10 questions in total).

The first section evaluates the relevance/applicability of DIP (dimensions, indicators and  proxies) in the context of Catania.

The second section collects feedback on the role of scenarios as a tool for testing the validity of the DIP system and collects information on the clarity and understanding of the data gathering process. You are asked to receive and complete the questionnaire submitted by the Local Training Lead, returning it back by email before and no later than Monday 07/02/2022.

The RESILOC research team will use the answers you provide to further refine the development of the resilience tool that aims to improve the resilience of local communities.

RA1 - Overview Catania

Catania - Workshops on Dimensions, Indicators and Proxies

The workshop will be a mixed meeting, with both in-person and remote participants, and led by the Local Training Lead. The Local Training Lead will introduce the participants to the theoretical framework developed.

This activity will be performed via a PowerPoint presentation that aims to explain the scientific/research framework of RESILOC, introducing the DIP database and the logic behind it. During the presentation, the Local Training Lead will explore participants’ views, in particular on the approach of using dimensions, indicators and proxies to capture the resilience of a community; this will be done through dedicated Q&A sessions during specific moments of the workshop.

The purpose is to make the representatives of the Municipality and the LRT members able to evaluate the applicability of the framework in terms of relevance, feasibility, data availability, among others for the community of Catania.
