Resilience is the process of adapting well in the face of adversity, trauma, tragedy, threats or significant sources of stress, it means learning and developing insights from difficult experiences such as the current global pandemic situation. It builds on research findings from four relevant fields of study, namely cognitive behavioural therapy, resilience, post traumatic growth and positive psychology.

In this sharing session, attendees will understand how resilience, hope and optimism interact and affect each other. It also explores the role of resilience in the deconstruction and reconstruction of our current understanding of Human Factors in Aviation. The sharing session also helps us to improve our coping strategies during crisis and ability to make good decisions even under stressful and uncertain environments.
