The Value of Community Building and Social Capital for Rural Communities Recovering from Disaster
Community building and social capital are essential components of disaster resilience for rural communities. Understanding the specific needs of rural communities and how community building benefits them in times of disaster and recovery is paramount in developing disaster recovery plans for these unique communities. Researchers conducted two focus groups and various informant interviews with the goal of collecting a narrative overview of Happy C…
Building Urban Resilience with Just Trees
Advancing resilience through the expansion of the urban forest is a critical topic in urban planning practice and research. Urban forestry initiatives that focus on increasing the tree canopy have been particularly important in tree-deficient communities, such as South Los Angeles (South LA; CA), a culturally diverse region where discriminatory policies and practices have contributed to environmental injustices and equity concerns. Despite effort…
Organizational resilience in first-response agencies
Understanding problematic substance use among first responders during the Covid-19 pandemic
First responder ladder of community engagement
Neoliberal Multiculturalism and Changing Colonial Racial Hierarchies in International Development
This research examines a shift in international development discourse away from more overtly colonial and abject depictions of people from the Global South toward foregrounding positive portrayals of people from the Global South who are self-reliant and empowered through entrepreneurship and market labor. Through interviews, observations, and content analysis of university-based development programs and development organizations, we examine the r…
First Responders and the Covid-19 Pandemic
Workforce retention is a current challenge for public administration, and there are continued questions about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the public safety workforce and their willingness to serve. Past studies have shown there are limits to what first responders will endure during complex and uncertain emergencies, leading them to potentially leave their position. Using a nationwide survey ( n = 3,582), in-depth interviews ( n = 91), …
Trauma‐informed organizational climate and its impact on first responder burnout during Covid ‐19
First responders experience work‐related challenges in higher magnitudes than other occupations. Organizational elements may mitigate or exacerbate burnout for first responders during public health emergencies (e.g., COVID‐19). This mixed methods study of first responders in the United States aims to (1) assess the relationship between a trauma‐informed organizational climate (TIC) and burnout; (2) analyze the moderating effect of TIC on role str…
Building resilience through informal networks and community knowledge sharing
In September of 2017, Hurricane Maria made landfall in Puerto Rico, bringing widespread damage to public systems across the island, which included particularly devastating impacts to local hospitals and medical facilities. Health care organisations operating on the ground played an essential role in hurricane response efforts as they attempted to address the medical needs of vulnerable populations. However, minimal research has discussed how the …
Who's learning from whom? Grassroots International NGOs learning from communities in development projects
Discussions surrounding participation in development projects often frame knowledge exchanges in a unilateral manner. However, in the implementation of participatory activities by grassroots international nongovernmental organizations (GINGOs), community members frequently serve not only as beneficiaries but have essential impacts on the organizations guiding these participatory engagements. In this study, we examine these reciprocal engagement d…
