Thrivespring is a collaborative online platform for community resilience, self-sustainability and disaster risk management.
We are launching this spring with one main feature — the Community Resilience Projects — and we’ll be adding more features on a regular basis.
The Community Resilience Projects feature will help people connect with others in their communities to work together for long-term resilience building. Let’s work together to create more robust, adaptive, prepared and connected communities!
We are looking for projects that fit into at least one of the following categories:
- Preparedness & Mitigation (eg. flood action groups; community emergency hubs)
- Emergency Response (eg. evacuation assistance; search and rescue)
- Recovery (eg. post-disaster “shop local” campaigns; neighbourhood clean-up crews)
- Food Production and Distribution (eg. urban farming; surplus food rescue)
- Water Security (eg. rainwater harvesting; water recycling systems)
- Local Energy (eg. renewable energy microgrids)
- Communications (eg. wireless mesh networks)
- Community Assistance (eg. running errands for seniors during Covid; lost pets search group)
- Health Initiatives (eg. community mental health support)
- Community Funding (eg. provision of funds to local projects within any of the above categories)
Here’s a sneak peek of how the Community Resilience Project feature will look!
