Abstract

The concept of resilience is multi-dimensional and cross-disciplinary, which has resulted in different conceptualisations and ways of measuring it. The exposure to environmental and health risks is unequally distributed according to age, gender, education, income, amongst others. Risks and impacts are more extensive for individuals with low resilience, and resilient individuals are better able to deal with threats. The aim of this study was to develop a Mixed Methods Individual Resilience Measure (MMIRM) and explore the sources of resilience.
