Scientists from the University of Mannheim discuss how a society and its members can become resilient.

Today, societies are facing not just one but several overlapping crises that threaten the (economic) well-being and mental health of their citizens, as well as democratic stability and political trust. The need to address these crises has brought social resilience to the attention of political decision-makers. But how does a society and its members become resilient?

Four Mannheim scientists will discuss these and other questions in a public panel discussion on Wednesday, 11 March. The discussion will be moderated by Prof. Dr. Corina Aguilar-Raab.
