Abstract

Both resilience building and the impacts of crises must be considered in various contexts of the built environment. Crisis impacts are experienced at the micro, meso and macro levels and by diverse market actors who have their own hopes, fears and abilities to prepare, manage, recover and learn, including ordinary households, office workers, real estate owners, firms occupying spaces and the public sector. Similarly, solutions promoting a resilient built environment cannot be reached without embracing a holistic approach that acknowledges the variety of timeframes, actors, scopes and factors, including political, environmental, social, cultural, technological, economic and legal issues that all contribute to resilience building. The present chapter ties together the essence and the main message of this book: imagine the possible futures, and don't be taken by surprise. Learn and apply the solutions and tools presented in this book to support a more resilient built environment and happier societies.
