TL;DR: In this paper, the authors delineate a multisystemic understanding of societal resilience to the COVID-19 pandemic and propose an integrated approach to build societal resilience in current and future pandemics.
Abstract: The current global systemic crisis reveals how globalised societies are unprepared to face a pandemic. Beyond the dramatic loss of human life, the COVID-19 pandemic has triggered widespread disturbances in health, social, economic, environmental and governance systems in many countries across the world. Resilience describes the capacities of natural and human systems to prevent, react to and recover from shocks. Societal resilience to the current COVID-19 pandemic relates to the ability of societies in maintaining their core functions while minimising the impact of the pandemic and other societal effects. Drawing on the emerging evidence about resilience in health, social, economic, environmental and governance systems, this paper delineates a multisystemic understanding of societal resilience to COVID-19. Such an understanding provides the foundation for an integrated approach to build societal resilience to current and future pandemics.

TL;DR: In this article, a policy brief about the COVID-19 pandemic by applying a complexity lens to understand its drivers, nature, and impact, proposes actions to build resilient societies to pandemics, and derives principles to govern complex systemic crises.
Abstract: This policy brief aims to promote a holistic mindset about the COVID-19 pandemic by 1) applying a complexity lens to understand its drivers, nature, and impact, 2) proposing actions to build resilient societies to pandemics, and 3) deriving principles to govern complex systemic crises. Building resilience to prevent, react to, and recover from systemic shocks need to become a core element of how societies are governed. This requires an integrated approach between health, social, economic, environmental, and institutional systems. The brief has been developed by a team of researchers coming from both the natural and social sciences.1 Reviewed by a group of policy actors,2 the brief aims to foster a dialogue between academic institutions and policymakers.
