FIELD NOTE | Nine Ways to Create An Asset-Based Recovery Plan

Organizations and groups across the globe are trying to find the right way to move into the recovery phase of the pandemic. Since these are unprecedented times there are no templates or formulas on how we can work through recovery.

In July 2020, we hosted a conversation with over 80 participants from around the world to talk about how organizations might alter the traditional recovery methods of top-down approaches to thinking about recovery with community at the center. We used a design thinking process to prototype what community-led, asset-based recovery might look like.
