This document discusses the Coastal Community Resilience (CCR) initiative under the U.S. Indian Ocean Tsunami Warning System program. The CCR framework aims to build resilience at the community level by addressing governance, socioeconomics, coastal resource management, land use, risk knowledge, warning systems, emergency response, and disaster recovery. It does this through assessing community strengths and weaknesses, identifying gaps and priorities, evaluating resources and opportunities, and implementing phased action plans. The goal is to take an integrated approach across disciplines like disaster management, warning systems, and environmental protection to enhance community resilience.
