Resilience: the key to the survival of rural societies in the face of conflict, 2005

01/06/2005

The development of rural societies is a patient process of accumulation, capitalisation and adaptation. It is also the implementation of complex interactions throughout "product" chains and the creation of many dependencies, particularly with the urban sphere. In many cases, it is above all the implementation, generation after generation, of risk management strategies and adaptation to "stress" situations.
