Lafontant, Director, Lower Roxbury Coalition, Boston, MassachusettsHundreds of billions of dollars are budgeted for climate resilience by governments worldwide. For this not to be an economic debacle, resilience investments must revitalize economies, not just protect them.Does your city or region have an actual process for reliably creating resilient, inclusive economic growth...or just the usual vision, plan and projects? The reliable production of ANYTHING requires a process.Over 95% of community revitalization and resilience projects fail to achieve their goals, and a shocking percentage of them fail outright. The reason is the same in almost all cases: lack of a complete renewal process. Crucial elements are missing. Since most leaders don't know what the minimum viable process is, they can't fill the gap. In RECONOMICS, that complete strategic renewal process is revealed for the first time. It can be applied at the community or national level.If you have ANY role in improving your local future, you need to read this book. What it reveals can double or triple the ROI (revitalization on investment) of your redevelopment, renewal and climate adaptation efforts.
