Modelling Scales of Societal Resilience to Concurrent Shocks in the Asia-Pacific Region

Abstract

In recent years, the world has witnessed a surge in environmental and social disruptions, amplifying concerns about the vulnerability of ecological, economic, and socio-political systems to various shocks. Projections indicate a trajectory of increasingly severe and complex systemic shocks in the 21st century, with implications spanning from the degradation of arable land and potable water to financial instability, mass population displacement, and conflict. Understanding societal resilience in the face of these challenges is crucial for both humanitarian and security reasons, particularly in the Asia-Pacific region (APAC), characterized by its diverse cultural, economic, and political contexts.
