Abstract: The present paper deals with the analysis of the current situation of the Municipality of Elliniko - Argyroupoli, in the region of Attica in Greece, regarding the sustainable urban resilience to impending disasters. The disasters are divided into natural and technological, of which natural disasters have affected the Municipality of Elliniko - Argyroupoli in recent years. Climate change, the increasing trend of urbanization, and the city's complexity are among the main reasons that necessitate urban resilience to prevent, respond to, and recover from a variety of impending disasters. The operational plans for civil protection, combined with the sustainable urban mobility plans and the waste management plans of the Municipality of Elliniko - Argyroupoli, make it a model municipality for achieving urban resilience. Through the results of the questionnaire, conclusions are drawn that could be considered useful both for the further analysis of the current situation and for the design of future policies.
