Abstract

Natural and man-made disasters, including terrorism, pose very complex challenges to urban management decision makers at the international level, who must respond correctly without adequate economic and technological resources. Therefore, it is important to consider urban resilience actions as a cohesive factor conducive to appropriate land planning. Starting with the multidisciplinary research of the autumnal equinox Technical University and based on the sustainable and emergency urban approach initiative proposed by the Inter-American Development Bank, as a public tool for the urban development of the county, the urban resilience improvement plan of La Concordia County of Ecuador was formulated. As the main conclusion, this study reveals the importance of urban elasticity in urban development planning, and proves the effectiveness of multidisciplinary research in urban development planning and construction.

Keywords
