Abstract
This chapter provides a framework for assessing resilience-based public policy/approaches by synthesizing key findings and insights for resilience-based public policy/approaches presented in previous chapters, which can be applied to projects or programs by multi-stakeholders at diverse scales in different contexts. Given that numerous resilience assessment frameworks and indexes/indicators have recently emerged, this chapter articulates how resilience-based public policy/approaches assessment framework (RB-PP/AAF) can contribute to existing resilience assessment frameworks or other relevant mechanisms for analysis. Specifically, the chapter outlines (1) what the RB-PP/AAF is and how it can address “missing links” with regard to existing resilience assessment frameworks, (2) what the assessment components of the RB-PP/AAF are and how they are linked with each other, and (3) how the RB-PP/AAF is applicable to projects or programs that address challenges in a modern risk society.
