Socio-economic practices of resilience: portuguese national report

Abstract

The current report presents the results of the analysis of the interviews taken by the Portuguese team within the RESCuE project. The objective of this report is double. On the one hand, we aim at providing a description of the main resilience practices. We take here resilience in a broad sense as responses shocks in families lives either caused by the crisis or happening in their context. On the other hand, we aim to provide an analysis of the resources and societal processes that are called into play in these practices as well as a tentative assessment of their effects in families’ lifes in the short, medium and long term.
