| Contents Notes |
Assesses the current state of private-public sector collaboration dedicated to strengthening community resilience, identifies gaps in knowledge and practice, and recommends research that could be targeted for investment. Specifically, the book finds that local-level private-public collaboration is essential to the development of community resilience. Sustainable and effective resilience-focused private-public collaboration is dependent on several basic principles that increase communication among all sectors of the community, incorporate flexibility into collaborative networks, and encourage regular reassessment of collaborative missions, goals, and practices. Introduction -- A conceptual framework for resilience-focused private-public collaborative networks -- Guidelines for community-based private-public collaboration -- Challenges to sustainable resilience-focused collaboration -- Research opportunities. |
