Urban Resilience Project

The S6 project will provide institutional and technical support to the Urban Resilience Unit (URU) in its mission to improve seismic preparedness and resilience in the Dhaka Metropolitan Area. To successfully provide this support, a Situation Analysis and Feasibility Report about the current structures and activities being taken to improve resilience, the desired structures and activities to improve resilience, and the feasibility of achieving the desired state was required to ensure transparency across the project and its goals. This report presents the findings of RTI’s situation analysis and feasibility investigation and presents options that align the objective of URU with sustainable institutional frameworks and resilience functions.
