This paper explores and extends understanding of the role and significance of whole-of-society resilience programmes that support cities when dealing with complex crises, like the COVID-19 pandemic. Highlighting the complexity of whole-of-society resilience as different actors locally shape it, we ask the question: How can collaboration between formal and informal resilience practices help to enhance resilience across the 'whole-of-society'? We answer this question by reviewing the importance of whole-of-society resilience and its complexity in a city's governance of the COVID-19 crisis. We argue that the necessity of renewing approaches to building local resilience capabilities across the whole-of-society requires synchronisation across and between formal and informal approaches - that is, "bottom-up" and governmental initiatives - to meet the diverse needs of communities. Secondly, we detail two recent practice-orientated initiatives that have taken a renewal approach to building resilience through the involvement of whole-of-society in planning recovery from COVID-19 using international standard ISO/TS 22393; and a new initiative called the National Consortium for Societal Resilience [UK+]. Finally, we signpost a set of critical questions for whole-of-society resilience practice.
本文探讨并拓展了对全社会韧性计划在城市应对复杂危机(如新冠疫情)时所发挥的作用及重要性的理解。鉴于全社会韧性的复杂性源于不同行为体在地方层面塑造它,我们提出问题:正式和非正式韧性实践之间的合作如何有助于增强“全社会”的韧性?我们通过审视全社会韧性在城市治理新冠危机中的重要性及其复杂性来回答这个问题。我们认为,更新全社会层面建设地方韧性能力的方法,需要正式和非正式方法(即“自下而上”的举措和政府举措)之间相互协调,以满足社区的多样化需求。其次,我们详细介绍了两项近期以实践为导向的举措,一项举措采用更新的方法,通过让全社会参与使用国际标准ISO/TS 22393规划新冠疫情后的恢复来建设韧性;另一项新举措是名为“社会韧性国家联盟[英国+]”的倡议。最后,我们为全社会韧性实践指明了一系列关键问题。
