Master´s Degree in Disaster Risk Management and Resilience Strategies and Tools
PRESENTACIÓN
Objetivos
This program’s objective is to equip the students with the knowledge and skills to:
- Understand Disaster Risk Management as a continuous process built upon social, cultural, economic and institutional circumstances, and that operates in contexts of constant hazard, climate variability and climate change.
- Identify and analyze the actions and measures required for prospective and corrective risk management.
- Understand disaster risk finance management, climate finances and post-disaster recovery processes after a disaster.
- Understand the role and operations of technological and information tools relevant to risk management, climate variability and climate change.
- Understand the climate change context and its relationship with Disaster Risk Management.
- Analyze the global climate governance challenges, the key players and the required mechanisms and measures to address such challenges.
- Understand the different adaptive climate governance tools and measures applied by territorial, sectorial, institutional, public, private and communal agencies.
- Encourage the creation of knowledge to promote research and the development of risk management and climate governance approaches
