Urban-Rural Network Tool for Designing Systems that Successfully Integrate Companies and Communities Towards Sustainability and Resilience

Written by

Based on the current state of affairs in relation to climate change and other environmental threats, it is now clear that our social, economic, and environmental systems are not prepared to respond effectively to these ever-increasing changes. One main reason for this, is that these systems often operate whether in centralized, or fragmented ways, failing to integrate urban and rural populations and their activities, leveraging on each other strengths in face of these issues. In response to this, the Urban-Rural Network Tool was designed and implemented in Lima-Peru. The results obtained from such experience, suggest that urban-ruralnetworked systems, which are multi-layer, and risk-preventive, present favorable conditions for resilience and long-term scalable sustainability.
