Our model for the equitably resilient city includes four central domains: 1) environmental safety and vitality; 2) security from displacement and violence; 3) stable and dignified livelihoods; and 4) enhanced self-governance. These principles represent the four LEGS (Livelihoods, Environment, Governance, and Security) of equitable resilience. To illustrate these core principles, the book draws on case studies from settlements facing a range of hazards across diverse geographies of the Global North and South, from heat stress in Paris to drought in Bolivia to floods in south Louisiana. Undergirding our analysis is the foundational principle that urban settlements cannot be resilient in the face of climate change, and that climate resilience cannot be truly ‘urban,’ without also transforming inequitable conditions.
