Collaboration for Resilience
How collaboration among business, government and NGOs could be the key to living with turbulence and change in the 21st century
Resilience means being able to survive, adapt and improve in the face of stress and change, to be able to withstand shocks, but reorganise and rebuild when necessary.

Humanity has been hugely successful historically at responding to stresses, by innovating and inventing new technologies. Over time, however, unintended social and environmental consequences have accumulated because technologies alone offer only narrowly optimised solutions
