Abstract
Enhancing resilience and reducing disaster risks are major societal challenges. Hence, it is crucial to understand resilience at the community level, as the impact of disasters and the potential for resilient development are particularly high at this scale. Key for understanding community resilience is the systematic assessment and measurement of resilience. The Flood Resilience Measurement for Communities (FRMC) framework offers a holistic approach to measure community flood resilience, facilitating the identification of interventions to strengthen resilience. This paper discusses empirically measured flood resilience data from 292 communities across 20 developing countries worldwide using the FRMC framework. Furthermore, it will provide examples of how such data can serve as a valuable resource for understanding the typology of community flood resilience across the world, and for identifying targeted interventions that address the unique challenges faced by different communities.
