Urban areas are increasingly exposed to complex and interconnected risks driven by climate change, technological development, and socio-economic instability. While the concept of urban resilience is well established at the strategic level, its effective operationalization remains a key challenge for municipal governance.This article analyses the role of project management as an instrument for enhancing urban resilience. The study is based on a structured review of the literature and conceptual analysis linking project management processes with resilience-building mechanisms. The analytical framework focuses on four key areas: strategic alignment, risk management, stakeholder engagement, and monitoring and evaluation.The results indicate that project management provides a structured framework for translating resilience strategies into coordinated actions through project portfolios. It enhances risk governance, supports stakeholder coordination, and improves accountability in public sector initiatives. The analysis of illustrative case examples further demonstrates how project-based approaches operate in different urban contexts and governance systems. At the same time, limitations are identified, particularly related to the temporary nature of projects, institutional constraints, and the need for integration with long-term governance frameworks.The paper contributes by conceptualizing project management as a bridging mechanism between resilience theory and implementation practice and by highlighting its role in adaptive urban governance. Practical implications for municipal authorities and directions for future research are also discussed.
