  1. C.S. Holling Father of Resilience Theory

  2. Awards and Honors Austrian Cross for Science and Art

  3. Seven principles for building resilience in social-ecological systems: Maintain diversity and redundancy Manage connectivity Manage slow variables and feed backs Foster complex adaptive systems thinking Encourage learning Broaden participation Promote polycentric governance systems

  4. Ecology and Society Editors –in- Chief Carl Folke, Stockholm Resilience Centre, Sweden Lance Gunderson, Emory University, USA Founding Editor- in- Chief C.S. Holling • An electron journal • Peer- reviewed • Multidisciplinary • Devoted to the rapid dissemination of current research Carl Folke and Lance Gunderson

  8. Theoretical Framework

  9. Behaviors of a system

  10. The Basin of Attraction

  11. Resilience Four aspects: Latitude: the maximum amount a system can be changed before losing it ability to recover Resistance: the ease or difficulty of changing the system; how “resistant” it is to being changed Precariousness: how close the current state of the system is to the limit Panarchy: how the above three attributes are influenced by the state of dynamics of the system at scales above and below the scale of interest Bayouwoman.com b.wagner

  12. Adaptability Actors can: Move the current state of a system away from or closer to the threshold Make the threshold more difficult or easier to reach Manage cross-scale interaction to avoid or generate loss of resilience 4. Managing for single state equilibrium can be a paradox mauricekerrigan.com
