Gestion des catastrophes dans les établissements urbains. L’approche de la résilience.

Disaster management in urban settlements. Resilience approach.

Résumé

This paper explores the notion of resilience and its application to the research, planning, design and management of urban settlements at various scales. The notion of resilience is an all-hazard approach related to the capacity of systems to adapt to disruptions without them changing to entirely different states, which in the case of human settlements often results in catastrophic consequences for the inhabitants. The paper will present several approaches for enhancing existing settlements, as well as creating new ones, to be better prepared to confront natural and man-made hazards. Particular focus is on future environmental and climate changes, both predicted and unpredicted, as they occur, such as increasing intensity and frequency of extreme weather events, as well as more gradual changes.
