`

Founded by the Global Resilience Institute in collaboration with Germany’s Fraunhofer EMI in April 2018, the Global Resilience Research Network (GRRN) is a global membership network of +300 researchers and practitioners representing +40 partners collaborating to apply interdisciplinary knowledge to support resilience  across multiple sectors. GRRN is comprised of  leading universities, institutes, non-profit organizations, and companies from around the world representing 23 different countries engaged in resilience research that informs the development and adaptation of novel tools and applications.

 

Network Benefits

The Global Resilience Research Network offers researchers and practitioners at member institutions a multitude of benefits, including exclusive opportunities for collaborative research and information sharing online and in person.

Initiatives

Aligned with our objectives, the Global Resilience Research Network has several ongoing initiatives around the world that strive to enhance the resilience of communities and inform decision makers about the benefits of evaluating and prioritizing resilient systems and infrastructure. One such example is the Island Resilience Initiative (IRI). The IRI was formed as a network within GRRN, linking together research centers, non-governmental organizations, institutes and universities in the Antilles and the Bahamas around a shared vision for informing and advancing the preparedness of island peoples and the transformative potential of their societies in the face of mega-storms, rising seas and long-standing structural challenges heightened by climate and  systemic change.
