This learning module navigates the journey from global crises to local interventions by first emphasizing the significance of resilience in DRRS. It then explores local responses to global crises through diverse perspectives in the "framing nested crises" submodule. The subsequent submodules focus on practical skills at the community level and the societal and individual root causes of crises.

The lecture engages students in a participatory modelling process of diverse, real-world, environmental problems working alongside a partner organisation.
