Hydro-hazards are increasing in frequency due to climate change which has inspired a cultural change in Flood Risk Management (FRM). Uncertainty associated with climate change has resulted in a shift towards flood resilience as it helps deal with unexpected climatic perturbations that impact extreme flows. The concept of resilience has increased in popularity, leading to a multitude of definitions, measurements and applications. This paper systematically reviews the FRM literature to provide clarity on the differing perspectives of resilience and how they influence successful implementation of the concept. Our analysis assesses where FRM is positioned within three pre-defined interdisciplinary understandings of resilience. The polysemic nature of resilience has produced a multitude of different perspectives that prevent successful operationalisation. Resilience is interdisciplinary; therefore it requires integration between top-down and bottom-up FRM approaches, as well as a more holistic approach to the interdependence between temporal and spatial scales.

“…Therefore, despite the efforts of academia and different organizations, there is still a large gap in resilience operationalization when going from theory to practice, making resilience tangible and practical for cities (Collier et al, 2013;Serre et al 2018). Currently, there are limited examples of the effective sequential steps that cities should follow to involve stakeholders in the resilience-building process and to improve the city resilience level (Weichselgartner & Kelman, 2014).…”

Unexpected crises and risks affect the urban population. Critical infrastructure dependency, climate change and social dynamics have captured the attention of city decision makers across different disciplines, sectors, and scales. Addressing these challenges mandates an increase in resilience. This article presents the development of the novel European Resilience Management Guideline (ERMG) developed by the European H2020 Smart Mature Resilience (SMR) project. It encompasses five supporting tools for city resilience. The purpose of this article is threefold. First, it describes the extensive co-creation methods used to establish, validate and test the five ERMG tools as collaborations among seven city stakeholders and researchers in Europe. Second, it explains concisely the features of each tool and its use cases and applicability in the city resilience building process. Third, it shows how EMRG supports strategic management in encouraging the visibility of risk dependencies, identifying vicious loops and potential cascading effects, and promoting collaboration between stakeholders to share resources. The article concludes with a discussion of SMR standardization activities to support the transfer of this research results to wider audiences. It covers guidance on local resilience planning and supporting efforts in building and operationalization resilience at the city level. Addressing questions on how the impact of events can be managed requires a multidisciplinary approach across city sectors. For example, cities are highly dependent on CI services, and disruptions that occur in these CIs might have a profound effect on the city's ability to sustain normal functions, affecting the community at large. Not only is there a need to establish a holistic risk-assessment framework across the infrastructures to support cross-sector priorities, but these effects must also be seen in a wider city context. For example, how do organizations manage their infrastructure and variations in risk perception between stakeholders (Brown et al., 2017)? How will critical city services

“…Relatively recent awareness of the numerous interactions fostered between each other by networks, infrastructures and urban services recognised as being critical, essential or vital has totally modified methods of risk management for urban environments. Current research in urban engineering leads to a more systemic approach that takes shape via the concept of resilience and gives rise to studies of critical infrastructures on more local levels [21].…”

Natural Hazards - Risk Assessment and Vulnerability Reduction

After 30 years without any serious flooding, and over half a century without any major floods (the river Seine's last "important" flooding in Paris took place in January 1955), the 2016 event questions our capacity to evaluate the flood hazard and its impacts. For the Ile-de-France region, the hazard occurred outside defined periods of vigilance, as a result of heavy rains downstream of the main protection structures formed by reservoirs. For this reason, these large protection works only had a very moderate influence on the event. Management of the 2016 event has been analysed on the basis of local measures whose effectiveness varied depending on the context. Among the positive lessons to be drawn, the 2016 floods revealed the high level of resilience of the Matra district in Romorantin. This resilient district, which has high urban qualities, has shown that, in the French regulatory context, flood risks can be treated effectively by appropriate development projects.
