Concepts of Resilience

Resilience - the capacity to handle change, adversities and disruption in a flexible and constructive way. In this course we explore the concept of resilience from a multisystemic perspective. The course also approaches resilience in a resource oriented way. We explore processes of adaptation, recovery and transformation and what this means on different levels, from the individual to the global, and in different contexts/disciplines (ecology, psychology, sociology for example).
