#TomorrowsCities Decision Support Environment – a thread.
The TCDSE is an evidence-based, #DRR framework and toolkit for inclusive & equity oriented urban planning in areas exposed to natural #hazards w/ an emphasis on marginalised communities.
First stage is Future Visioning.🧵
Still recovering from heavy #floods caused by #cyclone Yaku, #Ecuador was yesterday rattled by an M6.8 #earthquake near Guayaquil that killed at least 15 people and destroyed thousands of homes, mostly in poor areas. This is why we need to address the full #risk spectrum...
La temporada de lluvias en Quito empieza, y con ella recordamos que a lo largo de SIGLOS Quito ha estado expuesta a riesgos de aluviones y deslizamientos.
Tenemos el gusto de invitar a toda la comunidad a la conferencia de la profesora Isabelle Auclair, de la Universidad de Laval, Canadá, sobre el refugio en Québec. La charla será este jueves 2 de marzo de 2023, a las 15h00, en el aula Da Vinci 127, en el campus de la USFQ.

Thanks for the inspiring meeting with @UCLGMEWAorg on how @UrbanRiskHub#DSE could be implemented more grounded in rapidly expanding cities in the Middle East and West Asia region.
Our project works in 4 major cities across the globe.🌍
With population increasing from 1 million in 1950 to over 15 million today and an accompanying 21-fold increase in urban area, Istanbul is one of them! Find out more👇

Interdisciplinariedad que se ve reflejaba en nuestro diverso equipo de investigadores que trabajan desde la geología, la geografía, la historia, las artes, los estudios urbano y las políticas públicas.
@EliPeli79@JaviEc89@maryssacy_92@zt_Camilo@p_cubillo1 @fj_vasconez @UrbanRiskHub Enfocado en la construcción de la gobernanza del riesgo, la caracterización y modelización del riesgo y la coproducción y comunicación de conocimiento desde una perspectiva interdisciplinar.
Glad to share this new paper on #Andes#Climate in @elementascience@ucpress. Highlights:
- Altitudinal gradient hinders ability to get good projections.
- Social conflict challenges decarbonization.
- Diverging effects on air quality.

Games, memory and storytelling could be powerful tools to share and build knowledge about risk in cities. Interesting session led by @Profiainstewart and @quitoriskhub at the @UrbanRiskHub conference in Kathmandu.
What are you not seeing when you're looking through your discipline's glasses? What seeing the world in "other colours" can reveal about urban #risk? Role-playing and #Gamification are allies when discussing interdisciplinary work!

Great to share the experience of @quitoriskhub of using games, interdisciplinary content, arts and humanities in communication, engagement and participation tools!
Disasters are a serious business. But communicating about them need not be. Engaging people with games and art is a vital part of disaster risk reduction in the @UrbanRiskHub#tomorrowscities#allhub#Kathmandu
