Figures & data

Figure 1. The crisis preparedness checklist (English translation of the original list in Finnish). The list was designed to be used in the focus group sessions by built environment professionals with the idea that by answering to the questions, the list user can check how well a project or a process is prepared to the crises mentioned in the list. To further concretise the need of resilience, the user can add future scenarios to the list.
