Journal of the Indian institute of architects :(JIIA)Summary: Resilience and Sustainability are two distinctly different
terms, though they are often used in conjunction in
the achievement of today’s key social, economic, and
environmental goals. These terms tend to get interlinked
specifically when it comes down to recognizing their
potential in resource conservation policies. The definitions
of Resilience are many, since it is a subject studied by
researchers from diverse disciplines, including environment,
ecology, human physiology and psychology, social systems,
cities and economies. In a most common definition that
goes back to Holling (1973), resilience is thought of as
“[...] the magnitude of disturbance that can be absorbed
before the system changes its structure by changing the
variables and processes that control behavior” (Holling and
Gunderson, 2002). 1 Fundamentally, resilience is the ability
to deal with change, withstand adversity or to bounce
back after experiencing shocks from environmental and
technological changes.
