Our interdisciplinary team includes economists, data scientists, community planners, operations researchers and public policy experts. We apply decision science, data visualization, and advanced computing methods to:

• Assess the effectiveness of economic development investments and interventions
• Characterize and strengthen economic resilience and economic development capacity across the United States
• Evaluate and quantify impacts to local and regional economies from disasters and other disruptions
• Incorporate an equity lens to economic development planning, project design, and program implementation
• Provide rapid analyses of emerging economic development issues or policy trends

NERRC also convenes a network of government, non-profit, academic and private sector partners to regularly share economic resilience knowledge and best practices.
