Exploring Belongingness during Work-Integrated Learning for Healthcare Students in International Settings
Education within the healthcare professions commonly involves variations of work-integrated learning (WIL) experiences. WIL is an educational approach involving a student, an educational institution, and an external partner. It consists of authentic work-focused experiences that integrate theory and practice. This study explored belongingness among healthcare students engaged in WIL in the United States and the United Kingdom (The BeWIL study). T…
Living heritage as shared knowledge
This paper investigates living heritage as a crucial entry point for community-led post-disaster reconstruction, drawing on the work of Architecture Sans Frontières UK (ASF-UK) in post-earthquake Antakya, Turkey. As state-led reconstruction often disrupts local ways of life and overlooks residents’ needs, living heritage is proposed as a framework to broaden the range of perspectives included beyond technical expertise, providing a platform for c…
Are Spatial Planning Schools across Europe Teaching Climate Change? A Survey of Curricula in the European Context
It is important that the current and the next generations of planners are well equipped to contribute to the realization and upscaling of effective climate change action as a central element in any urban or spatial planning educational program. Framing the issue in the European context, and building on studies of other global regions, this research is the first European-wide scale survey to look at the extent to which European planning schools ar…
Co-producing knowledge to address disaster risks in informal settlements in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania
In Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, small-scale and everyday disasters are a manifestation of the multidimensional inequalities faced by residents of informal settlements. The co-production of knowledge about disaster and other risks, bringing together residents with local NGOs and local government representatives, is a potential entry point for addressing inequalities. This paper reports on such a co-production process in two informal settlements, carri…

Multiple interests in urban land
One of the actions that many local authorities take in to reduce exposure of informal settlements to disaster risks and the impacts of climate change is to move people out of high-risk areas. This is usually enacted through resettlement, relocation or evictions. This article argues that local authorities recognizing and validating multiple interests in land offers an innovative advantage to cities in equitably responding to risks, and adapting to…
Data schemas for multiple hazards, exposure and vulnerability
Purpose Using risk-related data often require a significant amount of upfront work to collect, extract and transform data. In addition, the lack of a consistent data structure hinders the development of tools that can be used with more than one set of data. The purpose of this paper is to report on an effort to solve these problems through the development of extensible, internally consistent schemas for risk-related data. Design/methodology/appro…
Environmental Justice and Resilience in the Urban Global South
There has been a profusion of work since the turn of the last century exploring environmental justice in urban areas and resilience in cities of the Global South. These works have largely entailed the assumption of an a priori positive relationship between the two. In introducing this volume, we argue that a case-study approach based on empirical research is necessary in order to reveal the more complex ways in which the relationship between envi…
Urban Resilience and Justice
The conclusion reflects on the theoretical, conceptual, methodological and empirical breadth of the contributing chapters and returns to the question outlined at the beginning of the book: what is the relationship, emerging connections and tensions between environmental justice and resilience in urban areas of the Global South? As explored throughout the chapters, in the face of environmental injustices, people develop survival strategies to cope…

Environmental Justice and Urban Resilience in the Global South
This edited volume provides a fresh perspective on the important yet often neglected relationship between environmental justice and urban resilience. Many scholars have argued that resilient cities are more just cities. But what if the process of increasing the resilience of the city as a whole happens at the expense of the rights of certain groups? If urban resilience focuses on the degree to which cities are able to reorganise in creative ways …

Africa's urban adaptation transition under a 1.5° climate
For cities in sub-Saharan Africa a 1.5 °C increase in global temperature will bring forward the urgency of meeting basic needs in sanitation, drinking water and land-tenure, and underlying governance weaknesses. The challenges of climate sensitive management are exacerbated by rapid population growth, deep and persistent poverty, a trend for resolving risk through relocation (often forced), and emerging new risks, often multi-hazard, for example …
Disaster risk and its reduction
Populations and assets, in African cities, small and large, are among the most vulnerable to disaster risk globally. Climate change and demographic shifts add urgency and uncertainty. This paper outlines priorities for research responding to this challenge. We argue for integrative approaches that can capture multi-hazard risk and include hazards from across the spectrum of everyday to catastrophic, and their interactions. For such approaches to …
Advocacy for urban resilience
This paper reviews what local governments in more than 50 cities are doing with regard to disaster risk reduction. It draws on the reports of their participation in the global Making Cities Resilient Campaign and its 10 “essential” components, and on interviews with city mayors or managers. These show how resilience to disasters is being conceived and addressed by local governments, especially with regard to changes in their institutional framewo…
Kernels of change
Disaster recovery and risk reduction are most effective when the state can provide an enabling environment to support community action. Following the 1999 earthquakes in Turkey, there were many initiatives undertaken by civil society to fill the gaps left by government programmes that did not reach tenants who had lost their homes nor support livelihoods and social recovery of the people. Now, 11 years later, this paper looks at how these communi…
Built-in resilience
Significant lessons can be drawn from grassroots experiences of coping with extreme weather for reducing the vulnerability of the urban poor to climate change. This paper examines the household and community coping strategies used by low-income households living in Korail, the largest informal settlement in Dhaka. This includes how they use physical, economic and social means to reduce risk, reduce losses and facilitate recovery from flooding and…

Post-Disaster Reconstruction
This book collects together 46 papers presented at the Third Biennial Conference of i-Rec, International Group for the Diffusion of Research and Information on Post-Disaster Reconstruction. The various sections of the book cover the technical and administrative aspects of housing and other buildings after disaster. The approach to post-disaster shelter and reconstruction exemplified by this volume is fully interdisciplinary. A very wide range of …
Impacts of prefabricated temporary housing after disasters
Truths and myths about community participation in post-disaster housing projects
Strategic planning for post-disaster temporary housing
Temporary housing programmes suffer from excessively high cost, late delivery, poor location, improper unit designs and other inherent issues. These issues can be attributed in part to a prevalence of ad hoc tactical planning, rather than pre-disaster strategic planning, for reconstruction undertaken by governments and non-governmental organisations (NGOs) in the chaotic post-disaster environment. An analysis of the process and outcomes from six …
