Towards ‘strategy as performance’ in hazard mitigation: reflections on Performing City Resilience in New Orleans
Towards ‘strategy as performance’ in hazard mitigation: reflections on Performing City Resilience in New Orleans
Performing City Resilience is a collaborative research project that investigates interrelations between theories, practices and strategies of city resilience, and those of performance. In this essay, the authors explore ways performance might conceive of and contribute to practices of hazard mitigation strategy to better understand how these might lead to a resilient city. They focus on their research in New Orleans, working with the Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness during its development of the 2020 Hazard Mitigation Plan. They discuss their interventions, initial impact, and consider performance of strategy as a critical form of ‘strategy as practice’.
