Unit for Environmental Sciences and Management - Sub-programme: Disaster Risk Science

 

The ACDS’s research focus is transdisciplinary in nature. We believe solving disaster risk problems requires many disciplines and an understanding of complexity in and between socio-ecologically linked systems. Our research focus on the following themes:

  • Disaster risk governance
  • Complexity and complex adaptive systems
  • Urban Resilience
  • Multi-hazard early warning systems
  • Climate Change Adaptation and Hazards
  • Disaster Risk and Lost Data
