Abstract:
ABSTRACTDisasters are potentially traumatic that are collectively experienced. Marine ecosystem damage causes the productivity of fishermen to be disturbed so that the welfare of fishermen decreases. The purpose of this study are to analyze the adaptive capacity and collective action through fishing community resilience towards marine ecosystem damage. The approach used in this study is quantitative approach supported by qualitative data with an online survey method. Data collection was done online due to the corona virus pandemic. The respondents were selected by accidental sampling with 30 respondents. The results of the study show that community adaptive capacity is high towards marine ecosystem damage in the form of collective action. There are still some community members who do not understand the purpose of carrying out activities, but they have already participated so that they are resilient in the form of increasing welfare, closeness of community relation and supporting facilities for fishermen productivity. Keywords: adaptive capacity, collective action, community resilience ABSTRAKBencana merupakan peristiwa yang berpotensi traumatis yang secara kolektif dialami.

Komunitas nelayan yang paling dirugikan dengan bencana ini karena terancamnya sumber mata pencarian mereka. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menganalisis dinamika kelompok dan resiliensi komunitas nelayan dalam menghadapi ancaman kerusakan ekosistem laut. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode survei dengan teknik pengumpulan data secara accidental dengan jumlah responden sebanyak 30 orang. Data primer diperoleh melalui wawancara berstruktur dengan menggunakan kuesioner dan wawancara mendalam pada beberapa informan untuk mendapatkan data kualitatif sebagai penunjang data kuantitatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa komunitas nelayan mampu beradaptasi atau resilien baik pada komponen sosial (social resilience), ekonomi (economic resilience) maupun infrastruktur (infrastructure resilience) dalam menghadapi bencana kerusakan ekosistem laut. Hal ini ditopang oleh adanya kekuatan dalam dinamika kelompok terutama pada komunikasi kelompok dan kohesi kelompok sehingga dapat terbangun aksi kolektif untuk mengatasi berbagai permasalahan yang dihadapi.Kata kunci: aksi kolektif, dinamika kelompok, kepemimpinan dalam kelompok, resiliensi komunitas ABSTRACTELOK HIDAYATI. Group Dynamic in Fishing Community Resilience towards Marine Ecosystem Damage. Supervised by NURMALA K. PANDJAITAN.Marine ecosystem damage due to human activities and climate change has had an impact on the destruction of coral reefs and the extinction of various types of fish. The fishing community is the most affected by this disaster because their livelihood sources are threatened. The purpose of this study was to analyze group dynamic and the resilience of fishing communities in facing the threat of marine ecosystem damage. The method used in this research is a survey method with accidental data collection techniques with a total of 30 respondents. Primary data were obtained through structured interviews using questionnaires and in-depth interviews with several informants to obtain qualitative data to support quantitative data. The results showed that the fishing community was able to adapt or be resilient both to the social (social resilience), economy (economic resilience) and infrastructure (infrastructure resilience) components towards marine ecosystem damage. This is supported by the existence of strength in group dynamics, especially in group communication and group cohesion so that collective action can be built to overcome various problems faced.Keywords: collective action, community resilience, group dynamic, leadership in group

Abstract:
El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar los niveles de resiliencia con sus dos dimensiones, “Aceptación de uno mismo y de la vida” (AUM) y “Competencia Personal” (CP),en participantes de deportes de carácter individual y colectivo. Se realizaron comparaciones inter e intragrupo y en función del nivel competitivo y sexo. Un total de 435 deportistas (300 hombres y 135 mujeres) cumplimentaron un cuestionario socio-demográfico y La Escala de Resiliencia (Wagnild y Young, 1993). Los resultados señalan que quienes practican deportes de carácter individual obtienen valores medios de resiliencia y de la dimensión CP superiores a los obtenidos por deportistas que lo hacen de forma colectiva (p<0.005). Respecto al sexo, en la dimensión AUM, las chicas presentan medias menores que los chicos (p<0.005). En cuanto al nivel competitivo, la tendencia es que a mayor nivel competitivo, mayor puntuación media de resiliencia (p<0.05).Los resultados dibujan la imagen del deportista resiliente como un chico joven practicante de deporte de carácter individual y de alto nivel competitivo. The objective of this study was to determine the levels of resilience with its two dimensions, “acceptance of self and life" (AUM) and "individual competence" (CP), in individual and collective sports participants. Comparisons depending on competitive level and sex, as well as, intragroup and intergroup comparisons were performed. A total of 435 athletes (300 men and 135 women) completed a socio-demographic questionnaire and the Resilience Scale (Wagnild and Young, 1993). The results indicate that those who practise individual sports obtain average values of resilience and the CP dimension higher than those obtained by athletes who do so collectively (p < 0.005). According to sex, in the AUM dimension, girls have lower averages than boys (p< 0.005). As for the competitive level, the trend is that at a higher competitive level, higher average resilience score (p < 0.05). The results draw the image of the athlete resilient as a young boy practicing sport of individual character and high level competitive.

Abstract:
The Problem Human resource development (HRD) research has sought to demarcate a human developmental problem by identifying learning interventions through which individuals can contribute towards group and organizational growth. However, there remains the fundamental problem, which is how to go beyond individualized employee development to a more collective resilience model building against workplace stress. Such lesser effectiveness has led to financial, emotional and psycho-social costs to individuals and collectives. Based on the theoretical analysis of human capital theory, HRD research and literature are lacking in how to more effectively operationalize collective resilience against workplace stress. The Solution A multi-faceted collective workforce resilience intervention conceptual model is proposed to enable both management and employees to overcome ineffective implementation of human development and thereby bounce back from workforce stress. Four aspects of the model’s practical operationalization are proposed as steps to help the HRD community of practitioners and scholars to engrain resilience as a workplace culture in resolving stress. Implications on (1) the identification of workplace stress, (2) the effective design and operationalization of development capacities. (3) the resilience intervention initiatives, and (4) the management of collective workforce resilience are highlighted. The Stakeholders The proposed model is designed for the HRD community, including scholars, practitioners, employees and managers in related HRD contexts.

Abstract:
Abstract By elaborating on the concept of ‘resilient moves’, we try to show how resilience in the case of asylum-seeking families living in open, collective reception centres exists in a complicated relationship with vulnerability and is very much a matter of local negotiation rather than mere adaptation in the face of adversity. Building upon consecutive waves of resilience research, this approach inspired by practice theory focuses on the agency of acts performed by families themselves or facilitated by people and structures in various types of relationships to them. It also allows a repoliticization of resilience, explaining how denouncing vulnerability due to structural precarity might constitute resilience through resistance. An in-depth case example of an Afghan family residing for 4 years in a collective reception centre will provide illustrations of our findings and approach.

Abstract:
Breathing, surviving, living, finding and forging our own meaning, acting in our own lives, finding our way to live through each day is survival, is resistance, is resilience, is re-whatever you want it to be because it is yours. And, with every act of resisting, we become more resilient and, in time, and we find ourselves connecting with others similarly engaged: struggling, learning and sharing experiences with each other as equals. So, our individual resistance-resilience becomes, naturally, organically, messily, something of a collective survival too.

Since the inception of the United States Department of Homeland Security, the American public has been told that it has a prominent role to play in the War on Terror. However, this role has not been clearly defined. This thesis explores the viability of community engagement as a tool to promote public safety and homeland security. Research was primarily conducted through a literature review (to understand how engagement impacts safety), and a comparison of four case studies of safety-centric engagement programs in the U.S. and United Kingdom. While several of the programs in the case studies have proven to be effective at developing trust and improving security, the U.S. federal government has not effectively worked with these resources to improve its understanding of the domestic security landscape. This thesis contends that a new system is necessary to connect the federal government to local engagement programs. This may be accomplished with a domestic coordination and engagement system, referred to as the Rising System for the purposes of this thesis. The goal of the Rising System would be threefold To link federal, state, and local governments; to build on existing community policing and outreach efforts to help at-risk communities identify their greatest challenges; and to provide a forum where community members can safely work with their government to develop solutions.

Full text
Abstract:

Assessing and developing organizational or collective resilience capacity is a strengths-based approach to managing continuous and unexpected change as a strategic capability. In this study, organizational resilience capacity is defined as a vital readiness that is built up by employee beliefs and behaviors. Human resource and management interventions have been recommended to strengthen this capacity. These are described as antecedents, enablers, and inducements designed to foster vital conditions that support relevant employee beliefs, feelings, and actions. Yet, there is little empirical evidence about which specific beliefs and behaviors to foster and no tool for assessing their strength. Interventions, then, cannot reliably be said to strengthen organizational resilience capacity. To address this gap, an exploratory, quantitative study was designed with two objectives: (a) identify specific employee beliefs and behaviors associated with this capacity from the organizational resilience literature and (b) design a scale using these items to explore how collective resilience capacity is constructed. After testing the Organizational Resilience Capacity Scale with employees in a manufacturing company (n=223), results suggested that there are specific beliefs and behaviors associated empirically with organizational resilience capacity. These can be assessed to support organizational understanding, direct evidence-based interventions, and provide a measure of accountability for impacting a latent, yet strategic, capability. The relationship between individual resilience capacity and organizational resilience capacity was also assessed, showing a small, but significant effect. That is, resilient individuals may contribute to vital conditions, but they do not create a resilient organization.

This dissertation is about economic resilience of local governments to natural disasters. Specifically, the dissertation investigates resilience on regional level. Moreover, the dissertation also investigates growth in the green job sector in local governments. The findings indicate that local governments working with each other helps green job creation. In addition, the dissertation finds that green jobs, following disasters, experience three percent growth. This dissertation is important because it investigates the relationship between climate- related disasters and green jobs, which is an area that is under-investigated.

Abstract:
In this study, I investigated the precursors and the outcomes of team resilience. In contrast to many resilience studies, which focus on low-probability, high-impact challenges, I investigated resilience in the face of high-frequency, low-impact challenges that teams can face in their operational environments. I conducted an extensive literature analysis of the field of resilience and on the basis of this constructed a model of team resilience by integrating insights from high reliability organizing, positive organizational scholarship, sensemaking and disaster resilience studies. I then tested and improved this model through an exploratory study of team behaviour in two 'Escape Game' settings in which teams of 5 people worked through a series of puzzles under time-constrained and somewhat stressful conditions. Following the exploratory study, I developed the resilience model into an operationalizable format and tested it using seven runs of a simulation study involving 547 individuals in 68 teams. In the simulation, teams had to work both quickly and accurately whilst adapting to the changing conditions of a turbulent, competitive environment. Quantitative and qualitative data were collected on various team attributes, team resilience and team performance. I have used quantitative data as the main source of analysis and qualitative data as a supporting tool. Self-completion questionnaires, objective performance indicators, direct observation and post-simulation team and individual reflections were among the data collection tools that were used to obtain data. Team resilience shows highly significant associations with a range of objective measures of team performance. In turn, resilience is supported by several team attributes, including collective mental models, effective channels of communication and systems of information gathering and team cohesion. When teams faced challenges outside of their existing action repertoires their ability to improvise also contributed to resilience. Finally, when teams overcame (novel) challenges, this fed back into their accumulated knowledge through collective learning, enriching action repertoires. Together, these features bestow teams with resilience, which, in turn, enables them to overcome disturbances that might otherwise impede operational performance. In its final form, my resilience model serves as an explanation of the mechanisms of resilience and identifies its antecedents and outcomes. It can inform teams operating in uncertain, ambiguous and volatile work conditions about the capacities and capabilities they need in order to create and sustain resilience in daily operations.

Abstract:
The objective of this proposed research is to test whether interorganizational collaboration contributes to the ability of an organization to bounce back swiftly from disasters. The research questions are examined from the Institutional Collective Action (ICA) perspective. The general argument of this dissertation is that organizational resilience can be explained by interorganizational collaboration. The ICA framework, specifically, identifies two general network structures to explain strategies that can be adopted to minimize collaboration risks: bonding and bridging structures. This dissertation focuses on how governmental and nongovernmental organizations in South Korea collaborated. The data was collected from the southeastern tip of the Korean Peninsula in August of 2012, and January of 2013. The 2012 Typhoons devastated the area after the first data set was collected in August 2012, causing the loss of estimated US$ 730 million and 29 fatalities. Afterward, the second survey was administrated in January of 2013 to gauge respondents’ views on how organizations responded to the disasters. This dissertation consists of three essays. The first essay presents a brief overview and assessment of the current research on resilience. The second essay empirically tests the sources of organization resilience. The third essay examines the dynamic nature of interorganizational ties by employing stochastic actor-based models. The findings show how organizations prefer to not coordinate with other organizations even though this could reduce their strains during a disaster. The findings also suggest that organizations that operate in higher risk areas or participate in joint full-scale exercises before a disaster form interorganizational ties afterward.

Abstract:
L’actualité est occupée par la question des catastrophes. Qu’il s’agisse de cataclysmes naturels, de massacres humains ou d’attentats terroristes, ces désastres interrogent directement notre capacité à y faire face et à y répondre, aussi bien individuellement que collectivement. Dans ce contexte, la notion de trauma et plus encore l’idée de « résilience » demandent à être complétées et élargies, voire dépassées. La catastrophe correspond à une rupture de la continuité existentielle de personnes, de familles et de communautés. Plus qu’une somme de deuils et de traumatismes, elle engendre un véritable bouleversement entraînant la désubjectivation de celles et de ceux qui y sont confrontés ou qui en sont les témoins. A la suite d’une telle expérience du ravage et du chaos, quelles sont les possibilités de resubjectivation pour l’individu ? Quelles pourraient être les formes de « résilience collective », entendue comme un ensemble de processus à inventer ensemble, notamment grâce à la mémoire et à la solidarité ?
Our present time is engrossed with the question of disasters. Whether natural disasters, human slaughters or terrorist attacks, such disasters challenge our ability both to confront, and respond to, them, both individually and collectively. In this context, the notion of trauma and, still more, the idea of "resilience" need to be supplemented and expanded, or even superseded. The disaster corresponds to a rupture of existential continuity for individuals, families, and communities. More than an amount of grief and trauma, it brings about a real overthrow leading to the desubjectivation of those facing it or those who were witnesses. After such an experience of the chaos, what are the possibilities of resubjectivation for the individual? What could be the forms of "collective resilience", considered as a set of processes to invent together, particularly through memory and solidarity?

Abstract:
L’évaluation de la vulnérabilité est indispensable pour permettre aux gestionnaires du risque d’inondation, publics ou privés, d’avoir une meilleure connaissance et de prendre des décisions concernant les moyens d’action à mettre en place. Notamment, la connaissance de l’efficacité des actions menées sur les territoires et de la capacité existante des territoires à faire face au risque peut influencer leurs choix et les politiques publiques de gestion. Toutefois, l’évaluation de l’efficacité d’une action à réduire les dommages liés aux inondations est complexe et difficile à mener. Par ailleurs, peu de travaux incluent la capacité d’actions dans l’évaluation de la vulnérabilité.L’objectif de cette thèse est de proposer une appréciation de la vulnérabilité tenant compte de la capacité d’action des territoires. Il s’agit d’une approche expérimentale de l’efficacité des actions, appliquée aux Programmes d’Action de Prévention des Inondations (PAPI) qui sont le dispositif phare de la politique de prévention du risque inondation en France. Elle repose sur une méthode à dire d’experts, associant les différents acteurs de la gestion du risque inondation en France
Assessing vulnerability to flooding is necessary in order to allow public or private stakeholders, involved in flood risk management, improving their knowledge and taking decisions with regards to flood risk management. In particular, knowing the effectiveness of implemented actions as well as the existing risk coping capacities on territories may impact their decisions and public policies. However, the assessment of an action’s impact on flood-related damages is characterized by high complexity. Few research works include the society’s capacity to take action in their models of vulnerability assessment.The objective of this research is to provide an assessment of vulnerability to flooding that takes in account this capacity of action. It relies on an experimental design that aims at assessing the effectiveness of actions through expert judgments. The panel of experts gathers varied actors involved in flood risk management. The method is implemented on Actions Programs for Flood Prevention, as they are a key component of the french flood risk management public policy

Abstract:
Our research paper looks at the sustainability challenge as an example of complexity in interrelated nested systems (or meta-problem) and we further explore the consequences of disruptive events induced by climate change (ie. Extreme Climate Events). Due to their potential effects on adaptive capacities of systems at all levels (macro, meso and micro) and the need for Strategic Sustainable Development (SSD) to develop meta-solutions (non-isolated, non-reinforcing) we focus on community-based interventions and participatory facilitation processes. Therefore, we enquire what might a process look like that supports a community’s psychological resilience and strategic sustainable development following a disruptive event. A way to reinforce a community’s adaptive capacities is through making meaning collaboratively and such a process can be supported by the use of stories and narrative. To this intent, we focus on the use of Collective Narrative Practices (CNP) within the implementation process (ABCD process) of the Framework for Strategic Sustainable Development (FSSD). CNP promote desired narratives and strengthen communities’ psychological resilience while the FSSD ensures the development of meta-solutions and their practical application (through the ABCD). Throughout a five-step exploration, we test their theoretical compatibility, interview FSSD and CNP practitioners, design an initial Process Prototype, test its validity by interviewing practitioners with expertise in both fields, and develop a final Process Prototype which embeds recommendations, guidelines and tools. Finally, our paper initiates the academic study of the linkage between FSSD and CNP and is aimed to guide practitioners of both fields to discern an effective way to facilitate the emergence of appropriate responses in a community, while maintaining or rebuilding its resilience and complying with SSD core principles.

Abstract:
With Singapore serving as the subject of exploration, The Hard State, Soft City of Singapore explores the purview of imaginative representations of the city. Alongside the physical structures and associated practices that make up our lived environment, and conceptualized space engineered into material form by bureaucrats, experts and commercial interests, a perceptual layer of space is conjured out of people’s everyday life experiences. While such imaginative projections may not be as tangible as its functional designations, they are nonetheless equally vital and palpable. The richness of its inhabitants’ memories, aspirations and meaningful interpretations challenges the reduction of Singapore as a Generic City. Taking the imaginative field as the point of departure, the forms and modes of intellectual and creative articulations of Singapore’s urban condition probe the resilience of cities and the people who reside in them, through the images they convey or evoke as a means for collective expressions of human agency in placemaking.

Abstract:
Large-scale change is not possible without aligning individual and collective values, wisdom, and commitment to the architecture needed to support ethical practice. The process required for designing a system that supports ethical practice on a moment-to-moment basis involves synergistic operational strategies. These include personal transformational learning, information for decision-making, supporting principled change-makers and risk-takers, and creating an enabling work environment. Transformational design and action involve using practices, techniques, and methods that source inner capacity at every step of planning and implementation and embodying foundational values. Transformational design leverages key elements of co-creating new patterns, developing new norms and systems for sustainable change, transcending disempowering patterns, and creating a new narrative.

Abstract:
AbstractTrauma associated with forced displacement has a psychosocial impact not only on the individual, but also families, communities and larger society. At the family level, this includes the dynamics of single parent families, lack of trust among members, and changes in significant relationships and child-rearing practice. Communities tend to be more dependent, passive, silent, without leadership, mistrustful and suspicious.

Abstract:
Real-world networks are dynamical complex network systems. The dynamics of a network system is a coupling of the local dynamics with the global dynamics. The local dynamics is the time-varying behaviors of ensembles at the local level. The global dynamics is the collective behavior of the ensembles following specific laws at the global level. These laws include basic physical principles and constraints. Complex networks have inherent resilience that offsets disturbance and maintains the state of the system. However, when disturbance is potent enough, network dynamics can be perturbed to a level that ensembles no longer follow the constraint conditions. As a result, the collective behavior of a complex network diminishes and the network collapses. The characteristic of a complex network is the response of the system which is time-dependent. Therefore, complex networks need to account for time-dependency and obey physical laws and constraints. Statistical mechanics is viable for the study of multi-body dynamic systems having uncertain states such as complex network systems. Statistical entropy can be used to define the distribution of the states of ensembles. The difference between the states of ensembles define the interaction between them. This interaction is known as the collective behavior. In other words statistical entropy defines the dynamics of a complex network. Variation of entropy corresponds to the variation of network dynamics and vice versa. Therefore, entropy can serve as an indicator of network dynamics. A stable network is characterized by a specific entropy while a network on the verge of collapse is characterized by another. As the collective behavior of a complex network can be described by entropy, the correlation between the statistical entropy and network dynamics is investigated.

Abstract:
The objects in the Internet of Things (IoT) form a virtual space of information gathering and sharing through the networks. Designing IoT-compatible products that have the capabilities of data collection, processing, and communication requires open and resilient architecture with flexibility and adapability for dynamically evolving networks. Design for connectivity becomes an important subject in designing such products. To enable a resilience engineering approach for IoT systems design, quantitative measures of resilience are needed for analysis and optimization. In this paper, an approach for probabilistic design of IoT system architecture is proposed, where resilience is quantified with entropy and mutual information associated with the probabilities of detection, prediction, and communication among IoT-compatible products. Information fusion rules and sensitivities are also studied.

Full text
Abstract:
Communal forests occupy one million hectares in the Northern of Portugal and Galicia. Since centuries ago, “Baldios” and “Montes Veciñais en Man Común” (MVMC) played an essential function in the economy of their owner communities. This role was lost all through the last century due to the enormous afforestation and the decrease of agriculture. The restitution of democratic regimes returned the communal forests tenure to the communities. Given the extension and high average area, our paper aims to research its potentialities and limitations of contribution to rural development. Two case studies, one in North Portugal and another one in Galicia, allow identifying the individual and collective traditional uses and the achievements made with revenues linked. Both Galician and Portuguese realities exhibit similarities and complementary benefits, and needing social and economic innovation to make a better use of rural resilience. Communal lands and small-scale business projects could maintain the network of local produce markets with attractive aesthetic values as well as biodiversity conservation. The comparison of the different criteria shows economic aspects are the most valorised by the stakeholders. The management decision of collective forests was the alternative mixed by the communities and the Forestry Services as the best one to complete the main objective of sustainable rural development. As a final conclusion of our work, remarking that the communities owning these forests currently seem to have the conditions to successfully manage their properties if the commoners are able to mobilize and adequate organize the communities.

Full text
Abstract:
Despite the new urban planning thinking and legislation evolution since 2016 towards sustainable development, in practice, there is a limited legal framework for planning which makes it more challenging for local governments. As a result, two main scenarios have taken place in the Metropolitan Area of Lima: the unsustainable urban growth at the metropolitan level, and sustainable urban development building at the local level. In an attempt to contextualize the current state of Lima’s territorial planning, the research captures the nature and trajectory of this contradiction to conduct the various trade-offs inherent in sustainable urban development. The results show that urban planning unawareness, and fragmented governance without continuity across government periods, have led to distrust at the metropolitan level diminishing its urban development towards social and environmentally sustainable development. However, integrated planning and collaborative governance with stakeholders enabled the strengthening of resilience with risk mitigation in informal urban settlements at the local level. The research concludes that new transformations call for new behaviors. Consequently, appropriate collaborative governance becomes a collective power for sustainable urban development growth.

Abstract:
The increasing of terror menace in recent years led the international community to enhance the efforts to minimize threats to people in everyday life by developing devices, techniques, and procedures targeted to improve the collective security. In this framework the Italian National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Economic Development (ENEA) developed a new device to improve CBRNe resilience, the Neutron Active Interrogation system (NAI). It has been conceived and optimized to identify transuranic-based Radioactive Dispersal Devices potentially hidden in packages, envisaging its utilization in field applications. NAI is based on the detection of neutrons from induced fission on small amount, of the order of a few grams, of fissile material. The device exploits a portable neutron generator based on d-t fusion reaction, a polyethylene structure for reducing the neutron energy in order to maximize the fission cross-section, and an array of 3He proportional counters. Fissile material detection is made using the Differential Die-Away time Analysis (DDAA), an active neutron technique based on the difference among the die-away times of fast interrogation neutrons and prompt fission neutrons induced by thermal neutrons in the moderating system. The original experimental setup was tested on the field during the live demo open to the public at the EDEN Project Demonstration occurred in September 2015 at ENEA Frascati Research Centre in Rome. Since then, the setup has been modified to improve the device detection capabilities. NAI performances have been tested within different environmental conditions, e.g. open field geometry vs. bunker-like geometry, to study the effects of scattering phenomena. The optimized configuration here presented is transportable, lightweight, and able to detect 2 grams of 235U contained in a salt of depleted uranium in real time, independently from the measurement environmental conditions.

Abstract:
In October 2017, the Coordinating Board of the US Committee on the Marine Transportation System tasked the MTS Resilience Integrated Action Team to identify the impacts, best practices, and lessons learned by federal agencies during the 2017 hurricane season. The RIAT studied the resiliency of the MTS by targeting its ability to prepare, respond, recover, and adapt to and from disruptions by turning to the collective knowledge of its members. Utilizing interagency data calls and a targeted workshop, the RIAT gauged the disruptive effect of the 2017 hurricane season and how Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria affected the operating status of at least 45 US ports across three major regions. This report identifies recommendations to better understand how the MTS can prepare for future storms and identifies activities by federal agencies that are contributing towards resilience. Such actions include hosting early pre-storm preparedness meetings, prioritizing communication between agencies and information distribution, and maintaining or updating existing response plans. Recommendations also target challenges experienced such as telecommunication and prioritization assistance to ports and critical infrastructure. Finally, the report offers opportunities to minimize the impacts experienced from storms and other disruptions to enhance the resilience of the MTS and supporting infrastructure.

Abstract:
[Extract from Executive Summary] To enhance sustainability and foster resilience within Scotland’s inshore fishing communities an effective system of collecting and sharing relevant data is required. To support business decisions made by vessel owners as well as informing fisheries managers and those involved in marine planning it will be vital to collect a range of information which will provide a robust understanding of fishing activity, the economic value of the sector and its importance within local communities. The SIFIDS Project was conceived to assist in attaining these goals by working alongside fishers to develop and test technology to automatically collect and collate data on board vessels, thereby reducing the reporting burden on fishers. The project built upon previous research funded through the European Fisheries Fund (EFF) and was designed to deliver a step change in the way that inshore fisheries in Scotland could be managed in cooperation with the industry. The project focussed on inshore fishing vessels around Scotland, where spatio-temporal information on the distribution of vessels and associated fishing effort is data deficient. The whole project was broken down into 12 highly integrated work packages. This is the integrated report for work packages 2A and 2B, entitled’ Development and Pilot Deployment of a Prototypic Autonomous Fisheries Data Harvesting System’ (2A) and ‘Investigation into the Availability and Adaptability of Novel Technological Approaches to Data Collection’ (2B).

Full text
Abstract:
This paper provides an insight on the gender impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the Caribbean. The analysis makes use of the April 2020 online COVID-19 survey that the Inter-American Development conducted in all six Caribbean Country Department member countries. We find that the pandemic is having different effects on men and women. For example, job losses have been more prevalent amongst single-females, whilst business closures have been more prevalent amongst single-males. Quality of life also seems to have worsened more for single-females than for single-males and partners (married or common law partnership) and domestic violence against women has been on the rise. Although the coverage of social assistance programs has increased substantially during the pandemic, we find that more targeting of households with single females could be beneficial, particularly as they show lower levels of financial resilience. Going forward, we recommend further gender targeting in social assistance programs and the collection of gender-disaggregated data that will allow for more thorough investigation of the gender effects of these types of shocks.

Full text
Abstract:
This study leveraged existing data infrastructure and relationships from the Feed the Future Senegal Naatal Mbay (“flourishing agriculture”) project, funded by the US Agency for International Development (USAID) and implemented by RTI International from 2015 to 2019. The research informed and empowered farmer organizations to track and respond to rural households in 2020 as they faced the COVID-19 pandemic. Farmer organizations, with support from RTI and local ICT firm STATINFO, administered a survey to a sample of 800 agricultural households that are members of four former Naatal Mbay–supported farmer organizations in two rounds in August and October 2020. Focus group discussions were conducted with network leadership pre- and post–data collection to contextualize the experience of the COVID-19 shock and to validate findings. The results showed that farmers were already reacting to the effects of low rainfall during the 2019 growing season and that COVID-19 compounded the shock through disrupted communications and interregional travel bans, creating food shortages and pressure to divert seed stocks for food. Food insecurity effects, measured through the Household Food Insecurity Access Scale and cereals stocks, were found to be greater for households in the Casamance region than in the Kaolack and Kaffrine regions. The findings also indicate that farmer networks deployed a coordinated response comprising food aid and access to personal protective equipment, distribution of short-cycle legumes and grains (e.g., cowpea, maize) and vegetable seeds, protection measures for cereals seeds, and financial innovations with banks. However, food stocks were expected to recover as harvesting began in October 2020, and the networks were planning to accelerate seed multiplication, diversify crops beyond cereals, improve communication across the network. and mainstream access to financial instruments in the 2021 growing season. The research indicated that the previous USAID-funded project had likely contributed to the networks’ COVID-19 resilience capacities by building social capital and fostering the new use of tools and technologies over the years it operated.

Texas A&M University School of Law Program in Natural Resources Systems, May 2019. http://dx.doi.org/10.37419/eenrs.mitigatingfloodimpactstx.

Full text
Abstract:
Flooding is a major source of concern for Texas’ coastal communities. It affects the quality of infrastructure, the lives of citizens, and the ecological systems upon which coastal communities in Texas rely. To plan for and mitigate the impacts of flooding, Texas coastal communities may implement land use tools such as zoning, drainage utility systems, eminent domain, exactions, and easements. Additionally, these communities can benefit from understanding how flooding affects water quality and the tools available to restore water bodies to healthy water quality levels. Finally, implementing additional programs for education and ecotourism will help citizens develop knowledge of the impacts of flooding and ways to plan and mitigate for coastal flooding. Land use tools can help communities plan for and mitigate flooding. Section III addresses zoning, a land use tool that most municipalities already utilize to organize development. Zoning can help mitigate flooding, drainage, and water quality issues, which, Texas coastal communities continually battle. Section IV discusses municipal drainage utility systems, which are a mechanism available to municipalities to generate dedicated funds that can help offset costs associated with providing stormwater management. Section V addresses land use and revenue-building tools such as easements, eminent domain, and exactions, which are vital for maintaining existing and new developments in Texas coastal communities. Additionally, Section VI addresses conservation easements, which are a flexible tool that can enhance community resilience through increasing purchase power, establishing protected legal rights, and minimizing hazardous flood impacts. Maintaining good water quality is important for sustaining the diverse ecosystems located within and around Texas coastal communities. Water quality is regulated at the federal level through the Clean Water Act. As discussed in Section VII, the state of Texas is authorized to implement and enforce these regulations by implementing point source and nonpoint source pollutants programs, issuing permits, implementing stormwater discharge programs, collecting water quality data, and setting water quality standards. The state of Texas also assists local communities with implementing restorative programs, such as Watershed Protection Programs, to help local stakeholders restore impaired water bodies. Section VIII addresses ecotourism and how these distinct economic initiatives can help highlight the importance of ecosystem services to local communities. Section VIX discusses the role of education in improving awareness within the community and among visitors, and how making conscious decisions can allow coastal communities to protect their ecosystem and protect against flooding.
