Standards Development
This document provides principles and a framework on how to enhance resilience in urban areas to protect communities, people and businesses and improve people’s lives. It describes:
a) how to build capacity to better manage change and disruptive events, whilst minimizing the impact on the most disadvantaged and vulnerable groups;
b) the benefits of urban resilience;
c) how to organize for, assess, plan, implement and continually improve urban resilience. This document is applicable to all urban contexts and governance structures and stakeholders for all identified levels of risk.
It is for use by all organizations that have accountability for resilience of services in urban communities.
This document is being developed in response to increasing global demand for guidance on the development and implementation of strategies which seek to improve urban resilience in the face of the social, environmental and economic challenges they face, now and in the future.

ISO 22371 project was cancelled due to delays on the schedule due to a change in Project Leader and the covid pandemic. The original project reached the DIS stage, so this new project is sufficiently mature to start at the DIS stage.
