“…This means that CSR investments can develop community capacity and cooperation to achieve community endurance, as mentioned in previous evidences [19,52,53]. The empirical findings derived from this study further strengthened Walton et al's [22] and McCrea et al's [36] results. Similarly, Wasylycia-Leis et al [114] explained mining in relation to the change of endurance, such as social endurance, economy, and environmental impact.…”

“…An asset is a stock of resources, namely financial, human, physical, natural, or social, which can be acquired, developed, improved, or transferred through generations [28,32,35]. McCrea et al [36] identified seven community valuable resources; cultural, social, political, intellectual, financial, natural, and built capital that can be mobilized to enhance community resilience and well-being. Steiner and Atterton [37] discussed that companies that operate in the countryside contribute to the community's resilience.…”

Mining is an important industry in Indonesia. A nickel mining company has operated for almost 45 years. It has managed corporate social responsibility (CSR) programmes in the neighbouring local community. In addition to the environmental conservation and mitigation, as well as socioeconomic enhancement, the CSR is expected to nurture resilience in the local communities. This study’s goal is to examine the effect of CSR on community resilience (COM-R) in the surrounding community. To analyse the effect of CSR practise on COM-R, Partial Least Squares -Structural Equation Model (PLS-SEM) is used. Results show that CSR has a positive effect on and a significant relationship with COM-R. Results also indicate that CSR’s contribution to COM-R enhances community collective efficacy, community action, and adaptation. Thus, the verified CSR and COM-R model benefits other researchers, companies, and governments to be further explored.

“…Social connectedness acts as a key driver of community wellbeing, with factors such as community spirit and cohesion, shared values, and social interaction each contributing towards the wellbeing of a community. In a connected community, people are more likely to volunteer, participate and share resources, and correspondingly, those communities will be more resilient in the face of natural disasters and other rapid changes (McCrea, Walton and Leonard, 2016). Communities that are cohesive and well-connected offer greater levels of support, sharing of resources, and the potential to restore and maintain a state of positive wellbeing for all community members.…”

“…Fois and Forino (40) suggest shared decision making and collective leadership that focuses on the long-term impacts of decisions for a community and engendered autonomy, enhances community resilience through local empowerment, participation and transparency. Furthermore, McCrea et al (35) argue community decision making and trust is a key dimension of community resilience. Communities that foster shared decision making and empowerment are more likely to view adversity as an opportunity for transformation.…”

Background: Resilience is a valuable platform for strengthening individuals and communities in the face of disaster. This review sought to evaluate the current literature related to individual and community resilience in community-dwelling older adults to understand the status of resilience in this population, identify gaps, and make recommendations about effective interventions that promote improved individual and community level capacity. Recognizing the concept of resilience is contested, the review conceptualized resilience as a collective concept that is multi-level and interdependent across those levels, cumulative, and contingent on context.Methods: The rapid review located 29 relevant peer review journal articles and industry reports related to research or evaluations of interventions aimed at increasing resilience at either a personal or community level. The results of these papers were thematically analyzed.Results: This review found personal resilience relates to those personal capacities and resources one has and uses to deal with individual stresses and change. We identified several recurring themes within those studies focused on personal resilience, including: (1) positive reframing and agency; (2) personal meaning and purpose; (3) acceptance and belonging. At a community level, we identified the following themes influence collective capacity and resources: (1) empowerment and shared decision making; (2) collective agency; and (3) collective leadership and engagement.Conclusions: The review highlighted the need to reframe how communities view older adults and shift the narrative away from focusing on age-related deficits toward acknowledging the economic and social contribution older adults make to the community through activities such as volunteering and the sharing of knowledge of history, culture and skills. Demonstrating the interdependence across levels, these activities illustrate personal-level capacities promoting collective action and participation as important for increasing community resilience. The review argues resilience is developed in everyday circumstances, therefore active involvement within communities needs to be encouraged within community-dwelling older adults. Developing active involvement will not only contribute to both personal and community level resilience but will enable communities to prosper and flourish through adversity.
