Abstract
The New Zealand Resilience Index (NZRI) is a resilience assessment tool whose development was funded by the New Zealand Government. This short report focuses on the way the literature on resilience was systematically analysed to operationalise the complex social phenomenon of resilience into a set of observable components or 'indicators' that can be consistently measured to quantify 'resilience'.
