Resilience, Culture and Well-Being: An Applied Social Science Perspective offers a profound exploration of how individuals and communities navigate social transformation, cultural change, and psychological adaptation in the face of contemporary challenges. Authored by academics from the Faculty of Applied Social Sciences, Universiti Sultan Zainal Abidin (UniSZA), this chapter unites diverse disciplinary lenses from psychology, sociology, anthropology, and community development. It highlights the applied nature of social science research, emphasizing how theoretical constructs can be translated into practical tools for fostering human and community resilience. Drawing upon local and regional perspectives, this chapter examines a range of pressing themes, including organizational resilience, social and cultural cohesion, mental well-being, and adaptive capacity in varied socio-cultural contexts. The discussion is situated within real-world scenarios, offering insights into how cultural traditions, social structures, and collective identities influence well-being and recovery. This approach underscores the significance of understanding resilience not only as an individual trait but also as a social process shaped by cultural and institutional factors. This chapter provides a timely and relevant contribution to the field of applied social sciences. By merging conceptual analysis with field-based insights, it bridges the gap between theory and practice in addressing the complexities of modern life. It serves as a valuable reference for scholars, practitioners, and students seeking to strengthen community empowerment, promote sustainable well-being, and preserve cultural identity in an increasingly interconnected and uncertain world.
