Bienvenidos a las ciudades resilientes

INTO ACTION
ANALySIS
A classic strategic planning analysis
method is the SWOT, referring to
Strengths, Weaknesses (internal),
Opportunities and Threats (external). We
suggest reordering the analysis under
the acronym TWOS, examining issues
before solutions, and prioritizing the
external over the internal as resilience
focuses on preparing for largely external
shocks and stresses; the Threats section
will be informed by the six challenges
of: population, climate change, energy
scarcity, income disparity, socio-political
and environmental degradation. One
should assess all aspects of a city’s
infrastructure: water, energy, waste,
building fabric, etc.
pRObAbILITIES +
IMpACTS vS COST
Quadrant maps can help visualize the
probability of a shock or stress occurring
and its economic impact, mapping these
against the cost of building the capacity
for resilience. This exercise will help
prioritize strategies and tactics.
STRATEgIES +
TACTICS
When creating a series of strategies
and tactics to execute each resilience
approach, the 6 attributes of resilience
should be used to assess the quality of
any given strategy or tactic.
Ask:
> How much flexibility does it allow for?
> How will it facilitate redundancy
in the system?
> How does it support the increase
of diversity in the system?
> How can dependency of systems
be reduced?
> How decentralized is the solution?
> How integrated is the system with
its environmental context?
Strong strategies and/or tactics can
answer many of these questions and can
serve more than one approach, so be
sure to cross-pollinate your worksheets.

The Nordic Folkecenter for Renewable Energy
Folkecenter
is situated in Sdr. Ydby, a small village in the Thy peninsular, overlooking the scenic landscapes around the Limfjord in the North Western Jutland of Denmark where windmills are seen in whatever direction you look.
The region of Thy has since 1975 in practice been pioneering renewable energy technologies for the local supply. For more than a decade private windmills, farm-biogas and biomass combustion have covered the energy needs of the region providing new income and prosperity with a better environment for the local residents.
