About Resilience Atlas
Resilience Atlas speaks about specific needs and issues of the community
identified by the community itself. It also provides suggestions on the needs
and issues of the community and recommendations on the same by experts.
Therefore, Resilience Atlas can be used as a guideline by community
members. The atlas would provide with key information to each member of
the community on their locality and the existing sustainable practices which
can create opportunities to improve their quality of life at an individual and
community level.. It can also be used for local area reference purposes by
policy makers or industry/corporate or academia or NGOs specifically
working for this locality.
