Resilience planning measures have been adopted across many scales and contexts, from government to destination and enterprise level initiatives. This conceptual paper documents the resilience planning approaches being developed in two South Island tourism destinations as a consequence of rapid change and uncertainty. It builds on the resilience literature addressing scale and rate of change, and draws conclusions about the resilience of tourism businesses and destinations facing both slow and rapid onset disasters.pp.545-548entourismresilienceNew ZealandConference Contribution - published
