This $299,827 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) supports research at The Ohio State University on developing new economic theory and estimation models for studying dynamic economic resilience. The objective is to improve decision-making for businesses, government, and insurance companies on the timing and level of investment in repair and reconstruction activities after disasters, in order to enable more cost-effective recovery for small and mid-sized enterprises. The research involves developing microeconomic production theory and resilience metrics, mapping this to data collection efforts using advanced survey techniques, and then applying statistical approaches to identify optimal investment strategies for dynamic economic resilience. This work aims to help identify best practices and obstacles that limit efficient recovery, which could inform more targeted federal, state, and local policies to support economic development and reduce the need for public assistance. The award has an initial performance period from August 2025 to July 2027.
