Episode 4 - All Resilience is Local

Disaster Politics Podcast

From block parties in San Francisco to building ambulance services in the Dominican Republic and Tanzania, the building of resilience only works with local ownership. But how do you build resilient systems at the local level, and how does this fit in with national and international systems? Joining us to talk about this is the Director of the City and County of San Francisco’s Neighborhood Empowerment Network, Daniel Homsey (@NENtweet) and Jason Friesen, the Founder and Executive Director of Trek Medics International (@TrekMedics).
