5. TRANSITIONING TOWARD URBAN RESILIENCE AND SUSTAINABILITY Capacity Inventory in Excel  Uneven distribution of ressources WP7 status & risk analysis WP7 working paper on website WP7 part of Project Periodic Report M1-18  Topical (sectorial) selection vs. holistic (urban) overall project goal  Lack of „time framing“ of transitions aimed for in WP 2-6  Very heterogeneous, wide & flexible use of „resilience“ through all WPs  Sectorial professional language vs. Common terminology  Lack of examples of operationalisable definitions/conceptualisations of „urban resilience“ (literature & practice)  Lack of indicators for/of resilience (literature & project‘s research capacity)  Tension between need/expectation for „ready-to-use“ working definitions and evolutionary bottom-up structure of project
