Diagnosing the conditions that determine whether systems endure
The WRL Systems Diagnostic Framework
A method for identifying the hidden conditions that determine whether systems can function, recover, and remain resilient over time — developed and applied across environmental, institutional, and public systems.
The framework is presented in the book series Stumped: A Diagnostic Framework for the Hidden Conditions That Determine Long-Term Resilience and Reading the System: A Practitioner's Guide, alongside a growing body of working papers and policy briefs.
