Resilient Rural Community Landscape Infrastructure

2022-03-29 | UPSC

Resilient rural community landscape infrastructure is a landscape planning and design concept with rural as the research subject, and one of its aims is to preserve rural resilience. Rural resilience may be defined as the capacity of a rural region to adapt to changing external circumstances in such a way that a satisfactory standard of living is maintained. This also includes the capacity to recover from management or government mistakes. Rural resilience refers to the degree to which a specific rural area is able to tolerate alteration before reorganizing around a new set of structures and processes. It can be described by how well a rural area can balance ecosystem, economic and cultural functions. As such, the rural resilience perspective refers to a rural area's ability to cope with its inherent economic, ecological and cultural vulnerability. Rural resilience builds on the interface of other types of resilience, in particular economic resilience, ecological resilience, and cultural resilience.
