In response to a request by the Department of Homeland Security, the National Research Council formed an ad hoc committee to organize a two-day workshop to discuss the use of social network analysis (SNA) for the purpose of building community disaster resilience. The workshop was held February 11-12, 2009, in Washington, D.C., and engaged a group of approximately 20 researchers in the field of SNA and resilience science as well as emergency management practitioners from different regions of the country. Gaps in knowledge regarding SNA and its use for constructing designed networks for the purpose of increasing resilience were discussed, as were areas of research that could fill those gaps.
