Flagship Summary
Our goal in Flagship 5 is to identify how societal decisions and choices affect the social, culture and economic resilience of communities, at local, regional and national scales. QuakeCoRE will bring together expertise from a range of disciplines, including tangata whenua knowledge to develop a holistic understanding of social, cultural and economic impacts from earthquakes; thus, providing key input to policy decisions at all levels of government and building a resilience community of practice.
The key thrust areas are:
- Addressing key knowledge gaps to improve our ability to holistically evaluate impacts of earthquakes, to understand and model system effects, and to advance our capability to evaluate the case for investment.
- Analysis and sharing of current tools and methodologies used for the evaluation of resilience-building policies and practices in order to identify opportunities for innovative cross-sectorial and organisational research collaboration.
- Development and evaluation of up to 6 Wellington case study activities which critically assess potential investment policies and practices to improve New Zealand’s resilience to earthquakes; and their use to provide inventive recommendations and advice for practical implementation.
