The state of resilience programming in the Syria crisis response: strengthening resilience capacities

February 15, 2021

The report shows that the three landmark agreements adopted in 2015 are closely interrelated and correspond largely to the transformative, absorptive and adaptive capacities of the resilience framework. These three agreements are the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development (with its enabling Addis Ababa Action Agenda), the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction, and the Paris Climate Change Agreement. Resilience thinking and practice provide a powerful integrating framework for the processes initiated by these agreements, and these global agreements provide a strong normative, legal and moral foundation that supports resilience-building efforts.

 This report is the second edition of the “State of Resilience Programming in the Regional Refugee and Resilience Response Plan (3RP)” report, published in 2016. The previous report focused on translating the principles of resilience-based programming into the design of interventions in the Syria crisis response. Since that time, the global and regional contexts have evolved rapidly, with resilience thinking and practice progressing substantially. This report identifies trends in these contexts and in resilience programming within the Syrian crisis and highlights lessons learned about strengthening and measuring resilience capacities.
