dc.description.abstractThe US Department of Defense's Humanitarian Civic Assistance (HCA) projects are an important tool that enhances community resilience in partner nations. My research on the impacts of HCA projects on resilience in Togo and Tunisia shows that proximity to HCA projects correlates with better access to medical care, suggesting a positive impact on community resilience. The DOD’s shift away from humanitarian assistance activities resulted in reduced funding for HCA projects. However, HCA continues to be an important assistance tool. HCA project impacts on community resilience can be improved by additional funding, improved planning, and closer attention to the local context.
