Since the Hurricane Sandy competition, Rebuild by Design, and the processes that were inspired by that work including, the National Disaster Resilience Competition, the Bay Area Resilient by Design Challenge, Water is Leverage, and others, have sparked interest in communities, governments academics, and researchers. To help researchers understand more about our work, and to continue to contribute to a growing portfolio of writings about the work, we have launched this library as a resource for all who are interested.
We would like to thank the University of Groningen for their partnership in locating and cataloging the articles and books that have examined our work. If you know of a resource that is not listed here, please let us know by sending an email to info@rebuildbydesign.org
