About the Seminar
The occurrence of extreme weather events and natural disasters including previously unscathed areas and the difficulty of containing them, are examples of risks that civil protection players describe as emerging on specific territories. The recurrence and violence of this type of risks and events, exacerbated by global warming, means that work needs to be done both on “breaking with risk management” and on the need to adapt professional and public practices to deal with them. In response to this societal challenge, interdisciplinary approach to crisis management is necessary to embrace technical, social and practitioner stakes and propose relevant and up-to-date solutions. In this presentation, Prof. Rizza will give an overview of the last and interdisciplinary projects she has led with a specific focus on the methodology and significant results. Her objective would be to bring the discussion on potential interdisciplinary projects we could jointly co-design and conduct.
