Description
This module brings together both academic and practitioner knowledge around what hazard warnings are, how they are designed, how they operate, and how to make warnings effective and actionable. This requires bringing a wide range of disciplines together that review disaster risk reduction for all natural hazards, science communication, science policy, understanding risk and uncertainly at scales from the local to the global. Whether warnings are technological, automated, community based, anticipatory, or responsive, this module explores the value of the people-centered warnings, and the need to create inclusive and multi-hazard warnings. Contemporary case studies will be explored throughout the course.
