Private-public sector collaboration to enhance community disaster resilience: a workshop report (2010)
In this book, the National Research Council assesses the current states of the art and practice in private-public sector collaboration dedicated to strengthening community disaster resilience. The National Research Council formed a committee to assess the current state of public-private collaboration as a means of enhancing community disaster resilience. A public workshop was organized to inform the committee of the characteristics of successful and enduring private-public collaborations for community resilience, to describe incentives and barriers to their formation, and to identify elements of the cultural environment necessary for them to thrive. This report is the first of two reports from the committee. The final report will include a recommended framework for private-public collaboration to support community disaster resilience.
