[The Walking Dead] Can Humanity Bounce Back?

There's very little known about the CRM, but a prominent fan theory is that they're using gene-therapy to create a new strain of humanity that's immune to the virus. Say they're successful and they have a few isolated communities with a few hundred immune people apiece. Where do they go from there?

They clearly have some limited manufacturing ability as well as the ability to maintain high-end equipment like helicopters, but they're still isolated in a world overrun by zombies as well as the roughly 15 million living humans who still carry the virus. If the goal is to rebuild civilization from the ground up, where would you even start?

Going off comics canon, probably.

By the time of the final issue (set about twenty years after the main events of the comic,) they'd gotten to the point where people had a pretty good handle on how to safely handle the recently dead, and they were able to industrialize the process of killing the existing zombie hordes, to the point that living zombies are now a rarity you have to pay money to see. They got that far without anything as advanced as Gene therapy.
