Resilience is a concept that refers to the ability of a system, organization, or individual to withstand, recover from, or adapt to challenging conditions, including stress, adversity, or change. The term is often used in various fields such as psychology, ecology, engineering, and organizational studies. In psychology, resilience is the process of adapting well in the face of adversity, trauma, tragedy, threats, or significant sources of stress such as family and relationship problems, serious health problems, or workplace violence. Resilient individuals are often characterized by their ability to bounce back from difficulties, maintain a positive outlook, and find meaning in their experiences. In ecology, resilience refers to the capacity of an ecosystem to absorb disturbances and reorganize while undergoing change so as to still retain essentially the same function, structure, identity, and feedbacks. In engineering, resilience is the ability of a system to return to its original state or move to a new, more desirable state after being disturbed. In organizational studies, resilience is the ability of an organization to adapt and thrive in the face of change, uncertainty, and adversity. Factors that contribute to resilience include strong social support networks, effective coping strategies, and a sense of purpose or meaning. Research in these fields often focuses on identifying the factors that contribute to resilience and developing interventions to enhance it.
