STAR-TIDES (Sharing To Accelerate Research – Transformative Innovation for Development and Emergency Support) is a global knowledge-sharing network focused on building sustainable resilience, supporting community and individual resilience to natural and man-made disasters, and promoting human security (“freedom from want“ and “freedom from fear”). STAR-TIDES is coordinated through the Center for Resilient and Sustainable Communities (C-RASC) at George Mason University.
