Knowledge-to-Action: Enhance Community Disaster Preparedness and Resiliency through Physical and Virtual Drills
Organization: Oregon State University
Primary Investigator: Haizhong Wang
Research Track: Climate & Environmental Resilience
This project envisions to create a community capabilities approach (CCA) to achieve disaster preparedness and resilience that complements a community capitals framework (CCF) which focuses on the community’s availability of resources. To operationalize this vision, the project team will establish a transdisciplinary cross-sector knowledge-to-action network which brings researchers, civil partners, community leaders and emergency managers together to co-design and co-produce community research needs, priorities, and resilience gaps.
