Resilience capacity building, reflection and learning: the Dynamic Resilience Wheel (DReW)
This document presents the Dynamic Resilience Wheel (DReW), an interactive tool and visual aid designed to build and strengthen resilience technical capacity of project stakeholders and facilitate reflection and learning processes in resilience initiatives.
The DReW is a contribution to bridging the gap between resilience conceptualization and development practice, as it helps practitioners to:
- Visualize the key components involved in resilience building;
- Identify and document the dynamic interactions that take place between those components (i.e. different pathways towards the achievement of development outcomes);
- Gain a more in-depth understanding of resilience technical concepts and their application to development practice (e.g. through practical examples and key resilience questions).
The Dynamic Resilience Wheel provides a dynamic snapshot of the key components of resilience thinking in development environments. Composed of multiple rotating layers, DReW offers a dynamic lens to help learn about and apply the main factors that play a role in resilience building. The wheel should be accompanied by the Implementation Guide available in Annex 2, which provides definitions and examples of the DReW’s components.
