What does soft power mean in a disaster? Juliette Kayyem explores how trust, leadership, and community connections help people prepare for crises, respond to emergencies, and rebuild.
From natural disasters to terrorism and cyberattacks, Kayyem explains why resilience depends on institutions that work and relationships people can rely on. She considers how the connections between governments, communities, and families become critical when lives and livelihoods are at risk.
