For whom is interested in urban resilience and sustainability, sorry for cross posting
Best regards

The Urban Resilience Research Network has just published after the summer break a new essay in its Viewpoints section.
Prof.
Stefan Bouzarovski (University of Manchester), argues through his
essay titled 'Rethinking Everyday Resilience in the Built Environment of the City' that resilience can be connected
to the notion of ‘retrofit’ by exploring the role of bottom-up and do-it-yourself forms of
urbanism, and their contribution to city resilience and sustainability.
He finally calls for "a deeper understanding
of the diverse mechanisms through which residential buildings and
people may embody complex processes of adaptation”
Stay tuned and follow our research activities, resources and critical points of view on urban resilience
also through Twitter and FB.
