Welcome to Wildfire Resilient Landscapes
Restoring balance between people and place
Wildfire Resilient Landscapes
Understanding recovery, resilience, and system stability across people, landscapes, and communities.
It's a Celebration
Happy One- Year Anniversary WRL
Wildfire Resilient Landscapes (WRL)
WRL examines how wildfire, land management, public health, housing, and community systems intersect. We translate complex science and systems research into accessible insights that help explain why recovery breaks down, and how better design can support resilient landscapes and people over time.
At the center of this work is what we call the efficiency gap: the space between effort and recovery, where systems work hard but struggle to deliver lasting stability.
As WRL marks its first anniversary, we are using this moment to reflect, refine, and update our mission to better reflect what this work has revealed and where it is headed next.
