Interactions among community stakeholders act as a buffer against disasters and present a way to build community resilience. Several decision support frameworks have been proposed in the literature to improve community resilience, but none focus on interactions among stakeholders. This paper presents a decision support
framework to guide decision-makers in prioritizing areas of interaction based on their mutual impact. The
framework is built on three components. The first involved conducting a literature review to identify areas of
interaction among community stakeholders; resulting in identifying 27 factors that reflect the various interaction
areas. The second was to implement a Delphi study to capture the dependency among the different areas. The
third was to prioritize the identified areas of interaction through network analysis techniques to understand the
propagating impacts of a change in one area on the others. The framework was applied to Spain, utilizing data
provided by Spanish resilience experts. Our findings indicate a high degree of interdependence among all areas of
interaction. Decentralization of the decision-making process and effective leading capabilities of emergency
organizations have been identified as top priority areas. By utilizing this framework, decision-makers can systematically enhance interactions among diverse stakeholders, creating a roadmap to improve community
resilience
