I research about resilience from individual, orgnizational and macro level dimensions and I am curious to see how we can draw the resilience understanding to the SDG goals individually or collectively
Caution is needed regarding resilience:

I think that resilience is an important factor in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Largely, resilience-building can help to ensure that the SDGs are achieved in a sustainable way and to create a more resilient society. Resilience can be seen as the ability to adapt to and recover from shocks and stresses in a way that maintains and strengthens the system, and that is in line with the SDGs. At the individual level, resilience can help people to build the capacity to cope with and manage the challenges posed by poverty, inequality, and climate change, and to develop the skills and resources needed to reach the SDGs. At the organizational level, resilience-building can help organizations to become more agile and better able to manage risk and uncertainty, while also ensuring that they remain aligned with the SDGs. At the macro level, resilience-building can help governments and other stakeholders to develop the policies and strategies needed to ensure the long-term sustainability of the SDGs.
Revered Professor Dr.Isuru Koswatte,
The term "Resilience" is explained that how to manage things in the difficult situations.
It is the new concept of Resilience has been involved in all the spheres of life like Individual, Organizational and Macro level connotations.
The area of Sustainable Development Goals has been realized on the side of safer issues without facing any hardships rather to escape from the shocks and threats from the toughest situations.
Individual Perspective:
An individual has the capacity to manage by himself or for his family to get out of the catastrophically instead of facing the challenges.
It is related to psychological aspects of the individual including the variables such as age, education, family size, household income etc. SDGs have brought the guidelines to come out of the poverty through these adaptation mechanisms.
Organizational Perspective:
Institutions have the capacity to coordinate all the departments to look at it the problems or foresee the challenges to protect precautionary measures to get rid of it intellectually.
Institutions have more aware of knowing the untoward things by predicting as early as possible because these problems could affect the growth and development of the institutions slightly or abundantly. The adaptation mechanisms of the Organizations have something greater than individuals.
Macro level or National level Perspective:
This is the country level consideration of maintaining things against the Resilience. It may affect the nations geographically.
It could be the Regions, Zonals, Districts and Villages level.
United Nations SDGs have the multi focussed objectives to manage the human beings, livestocks, natural resources if land, rivers, mountains, vegetation agriculture etc.
