“When we started the process, everyone thought ‘resilience’ was just about climate adaptation and fighting flooding,” says Jonas Kroustrup, chief resilience officer (CRO) for Vejle, a city of just over 100,000 people in southern Denmark. “But when we started to unfold the topic and ask people what it meant to them, it came to the point where social resilience became the main heart of the strategy.” Earlier this year, Vejle launched Europe’s first urban resilience strategy, which will see more than 100 city-wide initiatives – from cycle highways to flood-adapted neighbourhoods – rolled out over the next four years, in order to develop the city’s adaptability to future challenges. Resilient Vejle is one of 11 strategies announced so far as part of the Rockefeller Foundation’s global initiative 100 Resilient Cities (100RC), with Rotterdam the latest to be launched today. Cities as far afield and as varied as Rio de Janeiro, Byblos, San Francisco and New York have produced detailed strategies; each offers a bespoke blueprint for how the city will better prepare for, and bounce back from, all manner of pressures and shocks – not just climate change and natural disasters, but rampant urbanisation, economic downturns, social unrest, changing technologies and more.
