Title: Co-evolution of resilience initiatives toward a resilience collaboration
Abstract: A shared purpose of enabling opportunities for learning and fostering contributions to urban transformations toward a more resilient community can drive long-lasting partnerships between academic and local government colleagues and institutions. This chapter describes the co-evolution of a number of resilience initiatives aimed at reducing flooding impacts due to sea level rise and the impacts of increasing and extreme heat in South Florida's Greater Miami and the Beaches. Through the lens of these initiatives, this case study reviews the concurrent activities of the City of Miami and the Florida International University Sea Level Solutions Center in the Institute of Environment. The chapter further describes how the co-development of these initiatives has broadened into a multi-institutional program of resilience collaboration that continues to grow and evolve.
