Application of the DEXi Model for Resilience Management of Human- Environment Systems

Gebre Tafere

The overall goal of resilience management is to avert a human-environment system from moving into undesirable patterns. It depends
highly on the ability of the system to withstand external shocks in the face of complex uncertainties. Thus, it is critical to understand where
resilience exists in the system under consideration so that informed action is taken in order to enhance the resilience of the system.
This paper applied the DEXi Model to compare the resilience of two human-environment sub-systems of the Koga Watershed of the
Abay Basin. The model has been proved to be convenient for qualitative assessment of the resilience of complex systems like humanenvironment
systems.
