Recenzii
Community Resilience charts a path for practitioners, policy makers, funders, advocates, and researchers to press an agenda for change and create a healthier world by using story-telling to shift beliefs and behaviors, philanthropy to seed change, and data to spark innovation. If democracy dies in darkness, then equity dies in silence. Community Resilience trumpets its message of hope.
There is a real need in today's society for the findings of this volume. We must be moving toward a Culture of Health by pushing on and breaking down systemic barriers to community resilience and equity so that real social change and racial healing will occur.
The work in this volume from national thought leaders and accomplished activists inspires hope and direction. Especially relevant in the face of Covid-19 and ongoing climate change, Community Resilience should be required reading for students, practitioners, community organizers, and policy makers.
This book makes vivid and concrete the ways that mindsets are social determinants of health. The stories we tell ourselves about who deserves to be healthy and what we owe each other: these narratives drive health policy and health outcomes. Community Resilience is a valuable field guide to the culture part of the Culture of Health.
In this volume, you will find powerful examples of ways that individuals and communities across the country are working to improve conditions of life, especially for people and places that have been left behind.
This timely volume points to strategies for strengthening the resilience of communities to overcome inter-related threats from racism and poverty to the coronavirus pandemic, and will serve as a valuable resource for researchers, advocates, and policy makers.
