Building Resiliency from Within: Community Support for Survival and Hope

DESCRIPTION

Majora Carter emphasizes that every community needs three essential elements for survival: love, support, and hope. In her Planyc proposal for a stronger, more resilient New York, she outlines 257 initiatives backed by the best available science to strengthen our coastlines and neighborhoods, while enhancing critical infrastructure. The strategy includes accountability measures and a comprehensive implementation plan. The proposal also suggests creating an online platform activated in disaster situations to streamline relief efforts through familiar web tools like Eventbrite, Twitter, and Google Maps.
