This book describes the procedure to calculate a numerical livelihood resilience index based on a theoretical framework. The index calculated in this book is based on the conceptual and analytical framework for characterising livelihood resilience described by Ifejika Speranza, Wiessmann and Rist (2014). The mapped resilience values are easy to understand and facilitate the communication of scientific results to a broad audience.

This book describes the procedure to calculate a numerical livelihood resilience index based on a theoretical framework. The index calculated in this book is based on the conceptual and analytical framework for characterising livelihood resilience described by Ifejika Speranza, Wiessmann and Rist (2014). The mapped resilience values are easy to understand and facilitate the communication of scientific results to a broad audience. Thanks to the explicit standardisation rules defined in this book, the calculated resilience values hold absolute character. This allows geographical and temporal comparison of different locations. The calculations can be applied to all countries that are predominantly rural and possess rich census data. All data used in this book is either from the 2009 Kenya Census or open-access data provided by the United Nations and other organisations. The resilience index calculated in this book combines high scientific quality, time efficiency and money effectiveness. Therefore, it shall be a stepping-stone in applied livelihood resilience research.
