These slides were recently presented at one of our series of global resilience tools and approaches workshops. The Resilience Shift is seeking to enable and accelerate a shift of resilience from theory to practice. The slides provide a wider overview of the Resilience Shift, its activities and the proposed success factors. There is then a focus on our project on tools and approaches. The Resilience Shift recognises that everything we do has a value proposition and the value in this project is created by equipping professionals and decision makers with the tools and approaches to put resilience into practice.

- 20. So what? • The value is created by equipping professionals and decision makers with the tools and approaches to put resilience into practice. • Identify frameworks, tools and approaches that enhance the resilience of critical infrastructure and assess them from the perspective of the value they deliver. Shift of theory to practice through adoption of tools and approaches to enhance resilience
- 21. Success statement We will have created the go-to place for approaches and tools that can be used to enhance resilience of critical infrastructure and accelerate the shift from theory to practice, with a clear articulation of the value these approaches and tools create for practitioners and decision makers.

- I will start by explaining what our journey has been so far on this project. Why now? How has this come about? As Juliet mentioned we are in Y2 of a 5 year programme and one of the findings from the Y1 agenda setting activities has been that there seems to be a disconnect between those who involved in planning, designing, delivering and managing critical infrastructure and the tools that they need to enhance resilience of critical infrastructure in their roles.
- So What? Why does this matter? At The Resilience Shift we are seeking to enable and accelerate a shift of resilience from theory to practice. Everything we do has a value proposition and the value in this project is created by equipping professionals and decision makers with the tools, approaches to put resilience into practice. We ultimately want to achieve that shift by driving adoption and enabling sustained implementation of resilience tools
- But how to do that? Firstly we created an extended project team, intentionally bringing together people with very different backgrounds and a very broad set of skills, made of engineers, planners, social scientists, business folk, tool developers. And we came together to create a success statement: [read out] and again a special emphasis on the value delivered to users
- Wouldn’t it be nice to able to find that tool you need when you need it?
- And we have translated this success statement into hypotheses Today we want to test our hypotheses with you We hypotesise that [Read out].
- Here’s some of the challenges we identified and we are curious to hear what YOUR views are on this during the day. There are a lot drops in the ocean, meaning that there are a lot of tools, frameworks and approaches No trusted reference to turn to where the information is presented in a helpful user centred way Which tools are being used and how much? We want to understand what is blocking adoption Is the value being articulated? What are the gaps? What do you need that is not currently there?
- Our approach has been to use convening to deliver the project. Convening: As part of this project we are convening 3 workshops with similar formats, today is workshop #3. we had one in DC convened by 100RC, one in New Orleans convened by Global Infrastructure Basel and 3rd workshop in London convened by Arup. User-centred: Our work at the resilience shift has very much the user/recipient at heart. For everything we do we ask ourselves who is this for, how does it help? Then we challenge to provide evidence on how we know we have created an impact? Learning by doing: In this project we are learning by doing and stretching our thinking. We integrate new ideas, concepts and ways of working I think it is important to say that we don’t have definite answers, we don’t have it all worked out. We are coming in to listen with an open mind and we will rely on you wanting to share and participate.
- Ensuring that critical functions of infrastructure systems are delivered and maintained means that communities are protected, connected and provided for in ordinary as well as extraordinary circumstances is what we define resilience value. As part of this project we are testing how a value-driven approach could help with implementing resilience. We are developing an animation to explain this approach to others. We want to share it with you today, it’s only 1 minute long and we would love your feedback.
- On this last point, we are developing an animation to explain this approach to others. We want to share it with you today, it’s only 1 minute long and we would love your feedback.
- Hope you found it as adorable as we do. The importance of the value driven approach it that it seeks to define value for all parties involved, because that provides the drivers for them to introduce resilience. The value chain is a way of saying everyone involved in planning, designing, delivering and managing critical infrastructure can capture value for themselves but also contribute to the delivery of overall resilience value. And if anyone is missing, where it is not clear, the value chain breaks down. What we do at each stage has repercussions downstream and learnings should be shared through feedback loops. Today we are focussing on O&M but lessons learnt should be fed back into project identification phase. The way we want to use the value chain in our project is to map the tools and approaches that are relevant to each stage, map stakeholders across the different stages to organise information in a way that is intuitive and useful. ============================= For government, they will get thriving economy, community etc. So for investors, they will get a ROI For designers, they will get a satisfied client, meet objectives, etc. and they will comply with standards For owners operators, they will get improved performance, KPIs, lower restoration costs etc. For end user they get better function. And if anyone is missing, where it is not clear, the value chain breaks down.
- These are all the tools we have explored as part of our three workshops mapped onto the value chain. Something we have learnt is that tools can map across several stages and this was a lesson learnt for tool developers who learnt they needed to adjust their tool and how they pitch it to different stakeholders at different stages. As part of this project we have also undertaken a tool scan and attempted to assess current baseline of practice. Mapping the tools onto the value chain together with understanding user needs will help us identify gaps. And that is the end of my presentation. Over to Mairi now to explain a different approach we will experiment today to get you thinking about implementation of resilience.
