The Resilient Communities Handbook: Towards One Billion Actions is intended for the use of local implementers and provides a simple step-by-step process on how to launch a community resilience initiative. This handbook is not meant to be a “one size fit all” approach. On the contrary, every initiative is tailored to the context where it is implemented. Having said this, any Community Resilience intervention must always be based on four essential factors: it should be context-driven, multi-sectoral, locally sourced and people-centered.
