Countless cities and regions are threatened by natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis or hurricanes. The preconditions for these cities to deal with such catastrophes - including climate, resources and the socio-economic status quo - are just as varied as the forms and extent of the destruction. Sustainable urban design is key to managing these communities in an environmentally sound, economically robust, and socially responsible manner. An important strategy for the disaster resilience of cities and for the subsequent restoration of urban life is the organization of urban planning measures: protective and evacuation buildings, zoning of risk areas or the reorganization of entire cities. How can we design cities, and buildings that survive, thrive, and contribute a positive environmental impact?
The seminar will focus on disaster preparedness, resilience and reduction as well as strategies to reconstruct the built environment in preparation for future disasters. Students will get an understanding of issues in disaster prone areas and acquire theoretical knowledge on disaster resilience and reconstruction, as well as explore case studies, amongst others, from Japan and USA.
An excursion to Louisiana is planned for 2021.
Due to the current situation, online based formats e.g. as video corrections are offered.
