A crash course in changing the world.
CARRI Research is an organization is to understand what resilience is and how to get there, based on research evidence. As one resource for this effort, CARRI has commissioned a number of summaries of existing knowledge about resilience, arising from a number of different research traditions. This report is
one in a series of such summaries, which will be integrated with new resilience explorations in
several CARRI partner cities and with further discussions with the research community and
other stakeholders to serve as the knowledge base for the institute.
CARRI is presently working with three partner communities in the Southeast: Gulfport,
Mississippi; Charleston/Low Country, South Carolina; and the Memphis, Tennessee, urban
area. These partner communities will help CARRI define community resilience and test it at the
community level. Using input from the partner communities, lessons learned from around the
nation, and the guidance of ORNL-convened researchers who are experts in the diverse
disciplines that comprise resilience, CARRI will develop a community resilience framework that
outlines processes and tools that communities can use to become more resilient. Of critical
importance, CARRI will demonstrate that resilient communities gain economically from
resilience investments.
