The term ‘resilience’, which is integral to the UK Climate Resilience Programme(Gov)UK Climate Resilience Programme (UKCR) (UKCR), has been used increasingly in academic, practice and public discourse around climate change, and crises more generally. The term’s appeal comes from its ability to frame crises not as uncontrollable and uncertain phenomena to be feared, but as challenges over which one can triumph, with the potential for improving society.

Abstract

The term ‘resilience’, which is integral to the UK Climate Resilience Programme(Gov)UK Climate Resilience Programme (UKCR) (UKCR), has been used increasingly in academic, practice and public discourse around climate change, and crises more generally. The term’s appeal comes from its ability to frame crises not as uncontrollable and uncertain phenomena to be feared, but as challenges over which one can triumph, with the potential for improving society.
