CERAR, through its approach based on the localization and enhancement of local knowledge, aims to increase resilience by putting at the center existing forces and local opportunities perceived by local communities, to translate them into projects and to communicate and negotiate in existing social networks.

Thanks to an approach based on cultural sensitivity and contextualized proximity support, CERAR offers to support the resilient initiatives of local communities and organizations by helping them to make visible and formulate their knowledge and experiences.

Starting from the strengths and locus of control of these communities and organizations, priorities can be developed together (via dialogue and open-mindedness) to give access to the languages, standards and modes of action of external actors in the ‘the whole process (from planning to action, including evaluation and re-evaluation).
