Abstract: | The concept of ‘resilience’ is recently being increasingly used in academia, professional bodies, business, human rights and civil society organizations and in a wide-range of policy sectors. Its use in the field of public health has long been part and parcel of preventive policies designed to promote a long-term, holistic and socioeconomic developmental approach to individual, community health and wellbeing. With today’s protracted economic crisis, it is more vital than ever to be clear about its particular significance if we are to foster lasting and meaningful action to strengthen resilience to improve health and well-being |
