The authors presents key insights from a scoping review on societal resilience in the context of polycrisis. It emphasises that strengthening societal resilience in the polycrisis requires a clear understanding of how interdependent and causally entangled crises interact. This understanding can inform the development of targeted policies that address the underlying drivers of vulnerability and enable effective pathways to build societal resilience capacity, from individual and community levels to national and transnational scales.
