An ongoing collaboration between the Wellington Region Emergency Management Office (WREMO) and researchers associated with the International Research on Disaster Risk's International Centre of Excellence in Community Resilience (ICoE: CR) and Resilience to Nature's Challenges (RNC) Kia manawaroa - Ngā Ākina o Te Ao Tūroa National Science Challenge made progress towards operationalising theory-informed practice for disaster resilience measurement in the Wellington Region of Aotearoa New Zealand. Between 2014 and 2018, researchers, WREMO, and other key stakeholders engaged in a multi-stage co-learning process, including defining resilience, determining the measurement focus, and identifying measurable indicators. The process merged bottom-up and top-down resilience indicator identification and selection methods. This resulted in 10 resilience indicators that both link to national and international policy and meet the strategic, regional needs of WREMO. Keywords: Resilience measurement, operationalisation, knowledge co-production, top-down and bottom-up assessment
