A multi-criteria analysis of IUDF nominated sites in the Western Cape of South Africa Christians, Edroy Garth Geyer, Herman Stellenbosch University. Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences. Dept. of Geography and Environmental Studies. Thesis (MPhil)--Stellenbosch University, 2022. The study explores the relationship between urban resilience indicators, as described by international urban resilience standards and other stand-alone urban resilience frameworks as a measure of resilience in cities in South Africa between the reference period 2016 to 2021. While some cities display their strategic intent in the form of municipal planning instruments like the Integrated Development Plan (IDP) and align it to the Integrated Urban Development Frameworks (IUDF), others do not, and this is reflected in compliance towards urban resilience norms. Urgent interventions are required to streamline resilience frameworks as these address key risks within cities, particularly in the event of pandemics as occurred in 2020 (COVID-19 pandemic). The MCDA research method was utilised to predict the best urban resilience framework. The selection process did not produce consistent results as the selection of too many alternative indicators resulted in a rank reversal problem. The selected urban framework that consistently produced higher ratings was the ISO 37123 indicators linked to the risk management process. As the ISO 37123 was only published at the end of 2019, more time is required for cities to adopt its recommendations.
