Science and Technology for Resilience

The Science and Technology for Resilience program brings together experts from the public, private, nonprofit and academic sectors through meetings, workshops and other activities, to promote innovative research and evidence-based foundations to inform whole community strategies for resilience and adaptation; incubate ideas and projects; and conduct education, outreach, and community exchange that advance resilient systems and adaptive capacities in communities, the nation, and around the globe. The Resilient America Roundtable provides an important forum for this work.
