Tuesdays with Resilience

By Lan van Wassenaar

Senior Scientist on risk and resilience of agrifood systems

Strategic Investment in Resilience Research

Resilience is one of the five Strategic Investment themes started in late 2015 (together with Global One Health, Resource Use Efficiency, Metropolitan Solutions, and Synthetic Biology). Coordinators of the theme are Krijn Poppe and Bas Kemp.

A specific aim of the theme is to create a cross-disciplinary and innovative network of collaborating scientists and societal actors that are engaged in different aspects of resilience thinking, practice and research.

Join the Community of Practice (CoP)

To stimulate and facilitate cross-fertilization of theories and methods from different disciplines and fields, the theme organizes monthly CoP meetings (generally on the first Tuesday of the month, with the exception of May) at 16hrs. Everyone is welcome to present his/her own research or invite people from outside to give a talk on resilience.

The next CoP meeting will be held on Tuesday, May 10, 16:00-17:30, Room C0076, De Leeuwenborch. During the meeting, DLO research proposals for resilience research in 2016 will be presented and discussed. You are cordially invited to join the meeting and feel free to invite others!
