Abstract
The recent earthquakes have highlighted a significant economic losses and a low resilience of communities, particularly in historic centers of the town. These effects are mainly due to the high vulnerability of buildings and the correlated economic system. The consequences of the long recovery time on social-economic-management issues are often dramatic. This study proposes an economic and social sustainability approach for the conservation and enhancement of historical and cultural heritage exposed to natural risks and social dynamics. This approach, which develops in three phases, is based on the part that here is detailed on the construction of different quantitative measures of community resilience. In this way, integrated retrofitting interventions and mitigation strategies should be considered and evaluated in order to define the most effective action plan to maximize the resilience.
