Purpose:
This framework establishes a foundation on which all IFRC programmes, projects, interventions and actions, across the contexts, which contribute to strengthening communities, can be created, developed and sustained.
Overview:
Key elements of the Framework for Community Resilience are:
- Assisting communities as they adopt risk-informed, holistic approaches to address their underlying vulnerabilities;
- A demand-driven, people-centred approach;
- Being connected to communities by being available to everyone, everywhere, to prevent and reduce human suffering.
Three key elements for promoting community resilience are:
- Measuring the various characteristics that comprise community resilience;
- Measuring IFRC’s impact on community resilience;
- Measuring the incorporation and achievement of specific IFRC activities to supporting community resilience.
