What You'll Learn
PSS221 Urban Security and Resilience provides an overview of the wide range of security challenges that threaten cities and urban areas. This course highlights threats ranging from natural disasters such as flooding and anthropogenic climate change to cybercrime and communicable diseases. The term ‘urban resilience’ describes the ability of cities to absorb and bounce back from shocks. For those working in the public safety and security sector, it is important to understand the various factors that contribute to the development of urban resilience. The elements that make up a safe city have a direct connection with the economic growth of that city. A safe city not only determines the quality of life of people living there, but also affects others such as investments and tourism. To effectively provide measures to protect the city, urban management requires careful planning and coordination between various levels of government, residents, businesses and visitors.
