Resilience
Resilience is an ability to cope with problems and setbacks. Resilient people are able to utilize their skills and strengths to cope and recover from problems and challenges, or the ability to "bounce back".
Developing resiliency within communities will be critical to cope with the future climate. This will assist the populations to "shelter in place" as opposed to migrating to more hopeful regions, burdening the resources in the new location.
