Economic resilience is the ability of an economy to withstand and recover from external shocks, such as natural disasters, economic crises, or changes in market conditions. This research area focuses on understanding the factors that contribute to economic resilience, such as diversity of industries, strong institutions, social cohesion, and adaptive capacity. Researchers in this field study how policies, practices, and investments can enhance economic resilience and help communities bounce back from adversity. By building resilience, economies can better adapt to changing circumstances and improve long-term sustainability.
