Where developing regions lack the physical and social infrastructure capacity to respond and adapt to disruptions, they are vulnerable to both predicted and unpredicted threats. Resilience and development are interconnected concepts, benefiting from multidisciplinary research. There is opportunity for international collaborations to share concepts, models, data, metrics, best practices, and lessons learned. This effort enables representatives of a next generation of young scholars based in the US to partner and build research collaborations with researchers who are based in developing countries. The effort bridges the gaps of disciplines and national boundaries, where US-based researchers partner with international researchers with whom they would not otherwise meet. The effort disseminates lessons of development and resilience from across Africa and elsewhere through both established and new channels, enhancing the international community of scholars. The effort is a key step in furthering the science of resilience and risk across multiple disciplines. The Society for Risk Analysis (SRA) Fifth World Congress on Risk convenes on the theme of Development and Resilience at the Cape Town International Convention Centre, May 6-8, 2019. The NSF support is enabling thirty-five US-based early-career scientists to contribute to the World Congress on Risk and collaborate on topics of risk, resilience, and development with coauthors from developing nations. The effort partially defrays the travel costs for these scientists, who have submitted an abstract with at least one scientist or practitioner coauthor from Africa or another developing region as a coauthor. The US-based scientists and their partners from developing regions are thus building new relationships with international research partners. The collaborators will show evidence of additional collaboration within 6 months after the World Congress, for example through jointly-published papers, presentations, courses, webinars, etc. The aggregated outcomes of the funded collaborations will be reported to the scientific community.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

在发展中地区缺乏物质和社会基础设施能力以应对和适应中断的地方，它们很容易受到可预见和不可预见的威胁。复原力和发展是相互关联的概念，受益于多学科研究。国际合作有机会分享概念、模型、数据、指标、最佳做法和经验教训。这一努力使美国下一代年轻学者的代表能够与发展中国家的研究人员合作并建立研究合作关系。这一努力弥合了学科和国界之间的差距，美国的研究人员与原本不会见面的国际研究人员建立了合作伙伴关系。这项努力通过现有的和新的渠道，从整个非洲和其他地方传播发展和复原力的经验教训，加强国际学术界。这一努力是推动跨多个学科的韧性和风险科学的关键一步。风险分析学会(SRA)第五届世界风险大会将于2019年5月6日至8日在开普敦国际会议中心召开，主题为发展和复原力。NSF的支持使35名美国早期职业科学家能够为世界风险大会做出贡献，并与来自发展中国家的合著者在风险、弹性和发展主题上进行合作。这项工作部分支付了这些科学家的旅费，他们提交了一份摘要，至少有一名来自非洲或另一个发展中地区的科学家或从业人员作为合著者。因此，来自发展中地区的美国科学家和他们的合作伙伴正在与国际研究伙伴建立新的关系。合作者将在世界大会后6个月内展示其他合作的证据，例如通过联合发表的论文、演讲、课程、网络研讨会等。资助合作的汇总结果将报告给科学界。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
