| dc.description.abstract | UNISDR’s Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030 is a companion to the Sustainable Development Goals, that seeks to enable governments and civil society to take action to prepare their countries and cities for risks of disasters and climate change now and into the future. This roundtable intends to establish the state of the art from the regional planning networks in how disaster risk reduction (DRR) is addressed in planning education. In a roundtable at AESOP’s 2015 conference UNISDR’s Jerry Velasquez recently pointed clearly to the potential of spatial planning in increasing the impact of global DRR efforts. Realizing this potential can be achieved if DRR is firmly established as a key focus of planning education in planning schools globally. The DRR curricula should be focused on societal demand but also based upon sound scientific knowledge and understanding of how DRR methods, legislation and programmes can be effectively introduced into a specific local context. The roundtable will examine to what extent DRR is recognized as a key aspect in contemporary planning curricula. Short reviews will be provided on the state of DRR education in the different world regions to provide insight into the level of attention for DRR issues in undergraduate, graduate and professional planning education. Examples will be provided of how planning for DRR can be introduced and integrated into existing planning programmes and the bilateral connections between research and teaching. | |
