WELCOME TO THE MACARTHUR FOUNDATION NETWORK ON BUILDING RESILIENT REGIONS

The Foundation supports interdisciplinary research networks—"research institutions without walls"—on topics related primarily to human and community development. They are Foundation-initiated projects that bring together highly talented individuals from a spectrum of disciplines, perspectives, and research methods. The networks explore basic theoretical issues and empirical questions that will increase the understanding of fundamental social issues and are likely to yield significant improvements in policy and practice.

The MacArthur Foundation supports creative people and effective institutions committed to building a more just, verdant, and peaceful world. In addition to selecting the MacArthur Fellows, the Foundation works to defend human rights, advance global conservation and security, make cities better places, and understand how technology is affecting children and society. More information is available at www.macfound.org
