Proceedings of the workshop on resilience marker methodology

The Resilient Mountain Solutions Initiative generates knowledge to assess the resilience of socio-ecological systems by conducting mountain-specific case studies across the Hindu Kush Himalaya. We use a resilience marker methodology that relies on systems thinking to understand the complex interactions and feedbacks of socio-ecological systems. We have partnered with the College of Natural Resources in Bhutan, the BAIF Development Research Foundation in India, and the Southasia Institute of Advanced Studies in Nepal to use the resilience marker methodology for selected case studies. In a workshop organized in August 2020, we sought to develop our partners' capacities to apply the resilience marker methodology and conduct a preliminary assessment of individual case studies led by them.
