【趣　旨】

Human societies live in dynamic Earth environments. Human well being depends on social capacity to plan for the future. Yet both social and ecological systems are complex and non-linear and―as individual and coupled systems―their patterns of change are often increasingly unpredictable.

“Resilience” is an important concept in the study of, and possible human adaptation to, dynamic social-ecological systems. Resilience perspective accepts that change is ongoing and inevitable, and seeks to identify the spatial and temporal dynamics of key variables, thresholds, interactions and feedbacks.

Through presentations of various empirical researches and panel discussions, a goal of the symposium is to identify ways to enhance social and ecological resilience for graceful adaptations to an ever-changing world.
