DISASTER RESILIENCE SCORECARD FOR CITIES (BASED ON TEN ESSENTIALS FOR MAKING CITIES RESILIENT)
Intended Audience
A city is a system of systems, with each of those systems (e.g. communications, water, sanitation, energy, healthcare, welfare, law and order, education, businesses, social and neighbourhood systems) potentially having separate owners and stakeholders. Resilience needs consideration within and across each of these systems and therefore can only be achieved through effective collaboration. A range of actors – whether government, private business, community groups, academic institutions, other organisations or individuals – have roles to play in maintaining and improving city resilience. Ideally, local government authorities - which often have the best convening power- should take the lead in conducting the assessments of the Scorecard. A multi-stakeholder dialogue and approach between key city stakeholders will be necessary to complete the Scorecard, and is Essential in the push towards more resilient cities.
How does the scoring in the Disaster Resilience Scorecard for Cities work?
Local Governments that have used the Scorecard so far have found that it can be useful at a range of levels, as follows:
• As a high-level survey, often via a 1 or 2 day workshop – this can be supported by questionnaires that participants fill out in advance. Sometimes an average or consensus score is applied at the level of each of the “Ten Essentials”, rather than for each individual criteria / assessment;
• As a limited exercise focusing on some individual Essentials, to create an in-depth review of some specific aspects of resilience, e.g. community-level preparedness;
• As a detailed review of the city’s entire resilience position, likely to take one to several months to complete.
• In light of user feedback, the Scorecard now offers the potential for scoring at two levels:
- Level 1: Preliminary level, responding to key Sendai Framework targets and indicators, and with some critical sub-questions. This approach is suggested for use in a 1 to 2 day city multistakeholder workshop. In total there are 47 questions / indicators, each with a 0 – 3 score;
- Level 2: Detailed assessment. This approach is a multi-stakeholder exercise that may take 1 – 4 months and can be a basis for a detailed city resilience action plan. The detailed assessment includes 117 indicator criteria, each with a score of 0 – 5. Note that the criterion in the detailed assessment may serve as helpful discussion prompts for a preliminary level workshop. (p.5)
[Although aimed at local governments, institutions and sectors, such as museums, libraries, archives and other collections-based institutions, can make use of the Scorecard and Ten Essentials as a framework for their own activity, and in support of activity across a city or other community.]

SDGs LINKAGES
The 10 Essentials are linked to the Sendai Disaster Reduction Framework, which is strongly linked to all Sustainable Development Goals. Implementing the Sendai Framework, using the 10 Essentials, helps advance the SDGs, and implementing the SDGs helps advance the Essentials and the framework, as the primary international agenda for disaster risk reduction.
Collections-based institutions are implicated in the Sendai Framework in a number of ways. Notably by:
1. incorporating disaster risk reduction and resilience considerations into educational and public awareness programmes of all kinds, to build individuals’ and communities’ capacity and resilience to deal with disasters of all kinds, contributing directly to SDGs 1.5, 3.D, 4.7, 12.8, 13.3 and 13.B, and through these to a number of other SDGs and targets, for example SDG 2.4 and 11.A;
2. ensuring that facilities, services and staffing are effective and resilient for purposes of education, preservation and research, both in the face of disasters and to provide opportunities for effective use, some of which will contribute to disaster risk reduction, contributing to SDGS 4.4, 4.A, 9.1, 9.4 and 9.5
3. working to protect cultural and natural heritage effectively, supporting SDGS 6.6, 11.4, 14.2, 15, and 16.4.
4. ensuring that effective plans, policies and relationships are in place, to actively achieve Disaster Risk Reduction, to reduce the impact of disasters and to collaborate effectively for disaster response and to build back better in reconstruction, supporting SDGs 1.5, 2.4, 3.D, 4.7, 4.A, 6.4, 7.2, 7.3, 8.3, 8.5, 8.6, 8.8, 8.9, 9.1, 9.4, 9.5, 9.A, 11.3, 11.4, 11.5, 11.7, 11.A, 11.B, 12.6, 12.8, 13.1, 13.2, 13.3, 13.B, 14.2, 15.1, 15.2, 15.3, 15.4, 15.5, 15.6, 15.7, 15.8, 15.9, 16.4, 16.6, 16.7, 17.14 and 17.16, 17.17, and other targets listed above.
5.
