societal resilience

Societal resilience refers to a community’s ability to withstand, adapt to, and recover from challenges such as natural disasters, economic downturns, or social upheavals. It involves strong social networks, effective leadership, and flexible institutions that work together to minimize harm and restore normalcy. Resilient societies learn from experiences, improve their systems, and foster a sense of shared responsibility among members. Ultimately, resilience helps communities not only survive disruptions but also emerge stronger, more prepared, and more cohesive.
