Resilience Network Survey

General information

The AIA Resilience Network focuses on topics of disaster assistance, hazard mitigation, climate adaptation and resilience by creating a forum for knowledge sharing, networking, news and events and opportunities for external and internal project participation. Resilience is a systems-based approach to addressing shocks and stresses, and it requires a variety of perspectives, skills and experience. The goal of this form is to get to know your interests as well as your areas of expertise to better match you with future opportunities and to guide AIA programming. AIA Members of all backgrounds and levels of expertise are encouraged to join and actively participate so that we can together move the profession forward in creating resilient communities. Welcome to the Resilience Network!

Resilience and adaptation
Has your home or business suffered impact from a major declared disaster? Have you had to rebuild after a disaster/suffered business loss from a disaster?
If so, what type of event?
Areas of interest: disaster resilience. Disaster resilience addresses specific hazards or acute "shocks" that threaten a community. Of the hazards listed below, which are you concerned with addressing in your work?
