Cálculo y análisis de la resiliencia de los departamentos de Colombia

Abstract

En este artículo se analiza y compara la resiliencia de los departamentos de Colombia para mitigar los efectos de eventos adversos. Para esto se construyó un índice compuesto de resiliencia, utilizando variables como la diversidad de suelos, la diversidad de empresas, el índice de desempeño integral y la capacidad de carga sobre el ecosistema. Los resultados obtenidos evidencian gran disparidad entre los niveles de resiliencia de los entes territoriales estudiados, al tiempo que refuerzan la concepción holística de la resiliencia. De manera que los cálculos obtenidos para el índice son explicados por el desempeño integral de sus componentes.

Towards Rural Resilience: Assessing Future Spatial Urban Expansion and Population Growth in Quito as a Measure of Resilience

“…These works determine the level of resilience in a heuristic and theoretical way. While the works of Cuadrado-Roura and Maroto [64], Villada Estrada [65], Yanez Contreras [17], Sánchez Zamora [66], and Suarez Pardo [67] propose multidimensional mathematical models (social, environmental, economic, housing, physical, governance, among others) to determine the resilience index, with the difference that they use weighting techniques between the dimensions considered, mostly multicriteria techniques. This study also uses a multidimensional mathematical model, the CIR, which considers five dimensions and weights the dimensions equally.…”

“…Yánez-Contreras, Martelo-Amaya and Rodríguez-Páez [17] understand resilience as the ability of a society exposed to a risk or threat to cope with and absorb disruptions without significantly changing its characteristics, and then adapt, recover and restore its original state; 2.…”

“…In this phase the Composite Resilience Index (CIR) is produced, which is an adaptation of the work of [17,51]. The variables listed in Table 1 (product: Composite Resilience Index) were prepared for the case of the DMQ.…”
