This document summarizes a 2014 workshop on knowledge and appropriate technologies for sustainability and resilience in planning. It discusses concepts like public works, urban planning standards, and crisis management. Regarding public works, it notes the challenges of preparing for unprecedented crises compared to routine emergencies. It also discusses perspectives from organizations like the American Public Works Association and compares approaches between the US and Italy. The workshop aims to integrate planning processes, evaluate environmental impacts, and take an integrated approach to planning and design.
The document discusses principles of resilience in emergency preparedness. It argues that rigid exercises do not fully prepare responders for real disasters, as real events are unpredictable. International cooperation and more flexible "demonstrations" that incorporate failures and collaboration are better for developing resilience. The Strong Angel exercises showed the importance of layering communications, transportation, and power resources, as well as using open-source, redundant, and diverse tools. Face-to-face relationships and frequent communication also improve response. Media training is important to avoid potential consequences of poor interactions.
This document provides an overview of the Open Source Ecology paradigm and Civilization Starter Kit. The Open Source Ecology movement aims to create an open source economy through open access to economically significant designs and techniques. This will lower barriers to entry and allow communities to produce more locally. The goal is for communities to gain the knowledge to produce essential resources and become more self-sufficient through the open sharing of technology. The Civilization Starter Kit outlines 50 industrial machines that would allow small scale communities to achieve modern comforts by producing locally.
1) The document discusses the philosophical bases for universal design and the acceptability of implementing universal access principles in both the digital and physical world.
2) It argues that while access is seen as a core value and right in the digital world, there is more reluctance to implement access universally in the physical world.
3) The document advocates applying the emerging values of the digital age like facilitation, transparency, collaboration, and end-user design to promoting universal access in the material world to make physical environments accessible to all.

- Mark Prutsalis, President of Sahana Software Foundation, gave a presentation on making chaos manageable at the 22nd World Conference on Disaster Management.
- He discussed troubling disaster trends like increased urbanization in vulnerable areas and projected increases in disaster costs. This creates an opportunity for open source disaster management software like Sahana to help organizations better prepare and respond.
- He described the new information environment for disaster response exemplified by the 2010 Haiti earthquake, where responders had to leverage crowdsourcing, social media, and open data standards. This included efforts like Google Person Finder, Project 4636, and OpenStreetMap mapping of Haiti.
Putting the community into Total Flood Warning SystemsNeil Dufty
Presentation to the 2018 Floodplain Management Australia National Conference held on the Gold Coast, Australia.
Abstract:
The lead guiding document for the development of the Total Flood Warning System (TFWS) in Australia is ‘Manual 21 – Flood Warning’ (Attorney-General’s Department, 2009). According to Manual 21, the TFWS consists of six components: Prediction; Interpretation; Message Construction; Communication; Response; and, Review.
In a review of these TFWS components in relation to the findings of previous social research and government inquiries into flood warning in Australia, Molino et al. (2011) identified a further six components of a TFWS: Understanding the Flood Risk; Emergency Management Planning; Community Flood Education; Data Collection; Community Participation in the TFWS; and, Integration of the TFWS Components.
The twelve components have since been tested in the assessment of existing warning systems and the development of TFWSs for several communities across Australia.
This paper provides a summary of the findings from these projects with a particular emphasis on the successes and challenges involving the more community-related TFWS components such as Understanding the Flood Risk, Community Flood Education and Community Participation. For example, the TFWS assessments found that:
• Up to 20% of people living in floodplains were unaware of their flood risk
• Community flood education tended to rely on the provision of information
• There was little community participation in flood warning systems.
The findings demonstrated the need to engage with communities about all twelve TFWS components and this paper concludes by explaining how this could be best done using tailored techniques.

Urban Climate Change Resilience in Action: Lessons from Projects in 10 ACCCRN...The Rockefeller Foundation
This paper presents key insights emerging from an analysis of the 36 intervention projects,totaling approximately $15.5 million, which have been funded and are beingimplemented under the Rockefeller Foundation Asian Cities Climate Change ResilienceNetwork (ACCCRN) in ten initial cities1. As a pioneering effort to advance on-the-groundactions aimed at building urban climate change resilience (UCCR), this portfolio ofprojects2 provides a ‘first generation’ view of how a set of cities have interpreted UCCRchallenges and translated their understanding into targeted priorities and actions. Oneof the intentions of the ACCCRN initiative was to advance the still young field of UCCRwith practical actions that substantiate the growing number of theoretical frameworks.
Leveraging A Wiki To Enhance Virtual Collaboration In The Emergency DomainConnie White
In a crisis situation, critical success factors include good preparedness, the availability of
trustworthy information and reliable people, and the responders' ability to improvise with the available, functioning tools. Wikis can be used as collaborative group support systems to support these activities, especially for communities of practice that must operate as high reliability organizations. The advantages of using a wiki are especially beneficial in volatile environments, such as those in the emergency domain, where critical real-time decision making is required. An international wiki - emergenciWiki.org - has been created and is being used by both practitioners and academics. The conclusions include that wiki features and functionality, which are important for safetycritical work, should add a minimum of bureaucratic overhead while helping to establish trust and a sense of purpose and community among the users, strengthening each individual user's accountability for their actions, or easing the evaluation of information reliability.

The document discusses the Sputnik education reform movement of the 1950s-60s and lessons that can be learned from it for current education reform efforts. The Sputnik reform was driven by the goal of putting a man on the moon in response to the USSR launching Sputnik. It benefited from a clear goal, timeline, and legislative support. Current reform efforts also aim to address global challenges, 21st century job skills, and national security issues. International assessments show the need for continued reform.
Disaster Management Systems: Building Capacity for Developing Countries and ...Connie White
Some societies are more disaster prone than others due to their geographic location and the benefits provided by it. Man has co-existed in this sort of high risk/high return relationship with mother nature throughout history. Poorer societies tend to pay a higher price both in lives taken and damage – left with many secondary and equally devastating disasters that are sure to come. We know that for every $1 USD put into preventative measures, we save ~$7 that would have gone into post-disaster recovery and rebuilding efforts. There are many international agencies working to support a variety of needs in these grief stricken areas to help them build capacity and to help these societies better prepare for and respond to the disasters they will face. These efforts are guided by the Millennium Project Goals outlined in 2000. A lot has changed since then with respect to technology, mobile devices and humanitarianism. The objective of this paper is exploit how current efforts are creating capacity on the individual, organizational and 'enabling environment' levels. This paper explores the notion that a more concerted effort can be made at building Information and Communication Disaster Management Capacity in developing countries who are most susceptible due to proximity and to a lack of funds. A 'proof of concept' is provided
This presentation is an introduction to the Disaster Risk Reduction Ambassador Curriculum. This presentation was given at the Natural Hazard Mitigation Association's annual Symposium held every July in Broomfield, Colorado.

Disaster and crisis management is a global problem. Scenarios range from short-term localized events to those with widespread impact persisting for years or decades. From personal experience and research in the topic area, there is clearly a need for a technology “platform” that can integrate cross-disciplinary agencies, civilians, contractors, and any other conceivable stakeholder. These stakeholders (including the environment and the public) will benefit immensely from integration and standardization in a problem-solving environment, especially in light of the value of human life. This approach should lead to enhanced preservation of life and safety, reduced environmental impact, and overall improvement in disaster response and mitigation – irrespective of the disaster type or scale.

Just as cities are hubs for innovations and investments that expand opportunities, they are also living laboratories forced to confront challenges of increasing complexity. What, and who, makes a city resilient—and not just livable in the short-term—has become an increasingly critical question, one we set out to answer in late 2012 with our partners at Arup through the creation of a City Resilience Index.
"Since the launch early last year of Udacity and Coursera, two Silicon Valley start-ups offering free education through MOOCS, massive open online courses, the ivory towers of academia have been shaken to their foundations." Could disruptive change of such a magnitude also threaten top brands among international civil society organisations (ICSOs) such as Amnesty International, Greenpeace, Oxfam or Save the Children?
This question was at the centre of the deliberations of a group of about 20 experts and leaders from ICSOs and some of their key stakeholders who worked together from January to August 2013, trying to identify strategies to detect, prepare for and navigate disruptive change as it arises. The Disruptive Change Working Group communicated via an online platform and email, and held several telephone conferences and one face-to-face meeting in Bellagio, Italy as a basis for their collaboration. Published by the International Civil Society Centre, this text reflects the inputs and discussions of the whole group.
The document discusses several key aspects of public planning including the importance of interconnectedness and complexity in planning decisions, the roles and goals of public planners, and emergency planning processes. It provides examples of planning for different land uses and their impacts on traffic flows. The summary also outlines some best practices for emergency financial recovery planning before a disaster occurs.
This document provides an overview of principles, tools, and practices for building urban resilience. It discusses how cities face increasing disaster risks due to urbanization and climate change. Building resilience requires flexible, dynamic approaches that consider long-term trends, uncertainties, and worst-case scenarios. The document outlines guidance on risk assessment, risk-based land use planning, social resilience, ecosystem management, and enhancing resilience in key infrastructure sectors like water, energy, and transportation. The overall aim is to help decision-makers mainstream disaster risk management into urban planning and investments.
Towards a learning for disaster resilience approachNeil Dufty
- The document discusses exploring content and process for a Learning for Disaster Resilience (LfDR) approach to improve current disaster education.
- It suggests LfDR content should cover both external hazards and internal factors like community vulnerability/resilience, urban planning, and social capital.
- In terms of process, it reviews current disaster learning delivery approaches and identifies gaps, suggesting disaster education could benefit from drawing more on education theory and evaluation.
This document discusses community participation in disaster management. It defines participation as the active involvement of people in decisions that affect them. Participatory approaches are valuable as they allow communities to explain their priorities and vulnerabilities, build on local knowledge and expertise, strengthen communities, and accord with peoples' right to participate. There are two main approaches - guided participation where projects are initiated externally but involve communities, and people-centered participation which aims to empower communities and involve them in defining problems, solutions, implementation and evaluation. Operational issues with participation include the difficulty of managing the process while not undermining its purpose.

11 Scienza urbanistica e teoria dell'urbanistica - Etica scienza tecnica: il dominio dell'etica in una teoria generale / Science and land use planning theory - Ethics techniques science: the ethical foundation of a general theory. Leggere e rileggere le commemorazioni nei calendari non solo l'importanza delle memorie civili (del proprio paese come il 25 aprile o il 2 giugno e quelle di tutti i paesi), ma anche le ricorrenze “mondiali” istituite per dare al futuro possibilità di esistere: il giorno dell'Acqua (Water Day 22 marzo), il giorno della Terra (Earth Day 22 aprile), il giorno dell'ambiente (World Environment Day 5 giugno). In una delle prime lezioni abbiamo accennato alle esercitazioni per l'emergenza della piena della Senna e ora in questi giorni si assiste alla gestione reale dell'emergenza; nella lezione precedente abbiamo discusso di cinque postulati alla base di una teoria generale e ora vedremo l'importanza dell'etica (ricordate l'etica per gli eletti?) nell'impegno politico e scientifico per l'urbanistica vedendo l'attualità dei dipinti di Ambrogio Lorenzetti a Siena.
10 Scienza urbanistica e teoria dell'urbanistica - Etica scienza tecnica: per una teoria generale / Science and land use planning theory - Ethics techniques science: for a general theory. Nelle lezioni precedenti abbiamo visto come i limiti della prassi, che impediscono la costruzione di una teoria generale (le tre costanti), impediscano di comprendere i limiti dello sviluppo e i rischi di questo modello in un pianeta sempre più urbano. L'aumentare dei rischi dipende della crescita demografica e della maggior esposizione di popolazione a eventi catastrofici e sistemici. In questa lezione si parlerà dei modelli giuridici e di cinque postulati necessari per impostare una teoria urbanistica in ambito ecologico. Rafforzare teoreticamente l’urbanistica significa conoscere il processo e il suo controllo: dunque, saper amministrare l’urbanistica? AMMINISTRARE significa valutare e controllare il processo “pianificazione-attuazione-gestione” nella sua interezza e complessità, significa quindi possedere anche la capacità di spiegazione e controllo degli effetti indotti, e quindi anche la capacità di entrare nel merito delle questioni sociali e ambientali ben consci che queste dipendono largamente dalle caratteristiche politiche degli Stati. La contiguità con il mondo sociale rende evidente che l'urbanistica e le opere pubbliche non sono solo opere materiali.
12 Scienze e tecnologie nel governo delle trasformazioni - Le potenzialità dell'urbanistica come scienza / Science and technology for the governance of land use transformations - The potential of planning as a science La produzione di territorio e le tecnologie di prodotto dalle infrastrutture come condizioni generali per trasformare e sfruttare le risorse naturali agli insediamenti. Le infrastrutture sono mezzo e strumento per trasformare l’ambiente naturale in ambiente antropico, per produrre cibo e ricavare materie prime. Tra gli obiettivi principali stanno innovazione e sicurezza: le innovazioni tecnologiche nelle reti infrastrutturali, necessarie su tutte le infrastrutture, dagli impianti elettrici alle fognature o all’approvvigionamento idrico per le coltivazioni e per l’energia, non sono simbolo di ricchezza, ma di sicurezza, efficienza e affidabilità dei servizi; non sono un’opzione facoltativa, ma una necessità per fornire le condizioni generali adeguate e sostenibili allo sviluppo sociale e economico di un paese. Al termine si afferma che solo una cultura che combina coscienza collettiva e conoscenza delle relazioni reciproche tra organismi, oggetti e ambiente, potrà affrontare criticamente i temi dell’equità, del benessere e dei valori, per risolvere problemi generali, per mantenere il rapporto tra teoria e prassi nell’urbanistica, per ricostruire l’agire umano in armonia con l’ambiente.

Le forti contraddizioni tra i diversi aspetti che caratterizzano la vita sul pianeta Terra, aiutano a rafforzare posizioni così ideologiche da far rinnegare i più evidenti benefici delle molte rivoluzioni (agronomiche, industriali, sanitarie e sociali) a favore di inesistenti passati arcadici, con il risultato di mettere a rischio molti processi politici e conoscitivi. [ma che cosa vuol dire: DECRESCITA FELICE?]. Per affrontare correttamente il rapporto tra scienze e tecnologie nel governo del territorio bisogna sciogliere il groviglio di luoghi comuni che stanno alla base di queste apparenti contraddizioni e indeboliscono ogni capacità di azione.

2016 Science and urban planning theory. Learning from ecology and reality.
Il contesto dell'urbanistica è fornito dall'analisi degli squilibri dell'urbanisimo mondiale e dalla discussine sui limiti dello sviluppo o della crescita demografica. La costruzione di una teoria in ambito ecologico privilegia le analisi della capacità di carico di una regione, dei fattori limitanti la crescita di una popolazione (anche umana), del metabolismo urbano e dell'impronta ecologica, esplicitando i legami tra i metodi. Il caso degli studi sull'impronta ecologica di Londra è utile per vedere quattro aspetti: l'esigenza di protocolli trasparenti, la questione etica della responsabilità disciplinare e politica, i rapporti con la politica, le scelte in condizioni di incertezza.

2016 Science and land use planning theory. Learning from ecology and reality. Scienza urbanistica e teoria dell'urbanistica: imparare dall'ecologia e dalla realtà. Tra tutti i documenti disponibili abbiamo selezionato nei fondamenti quelli che maggiormente permettevano di individuare i principi guida dell'urbanistica, ma abbiamo trovato definizioni contrastanti (una disciplina o un insieme di discipline complementari? oppure tecniche operative senza autonomia disciplinare?) Nonostante vi fosse un unico oggetto di interesse (le città, le loro espansioni e trasformazioni), l'urbanistica appare deformata da una visione classica e convenzionale che non tiene conto di condizioni generali, indirizzi giuridici, questione ambientale. Da qui si inizia per fondare una visione scientifica e una teoria in ambito ecologico.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

10. Public works
many points of views (APWA)
In the real world there is no one, ideal structure for a public works operation. Even
though some public works services are considered “must haves” in every community,
they may not be readily identified on a city organizational chart, or delivered in the same
way, or to the same level, from one community to the next. In fact, some municipalities
may not even have a department named public works.
Although some functions are not common to every community, each of them will have
such things as water, utilities, and trash collection—unquestionably. What IS in question
is by whom they are delivered. The traditional concept of public works is that
governmental units provide the services, own the facilities, and are usually funded
through taxation. However, the situation often is not that clear-cut today, and other
models also exist, which include publicly owned corporations and partial outsourcing. It’s
not uncommon for the private sector to be involved in delivering public works services as
well. For instance, some communities may own a fleet of trash collection vehicles, but
other communities will contract out that service to private companies. It’s also common
for a municipal engineering division to plan and design large construction projects but to
contract out the actual construction work.

The Novelty of Crises: How to Prepare for the Unprecedented
by Arnold M. Howitt and Herman B. “Dutch” Leonard
[draws on work previously published: Fletcher Forum of World Affairs, Vol. 30:1, Winter
2006, pp. 215-221; Crisis/Response Journal, Vol. 2, No. 2 (June 2006), pp. 52-53, and
No.3 (September 2006), pp. 54-56].
IN THIS ARTICLE
Howitt and Leonard discuss the difficulties of preparing for
unprecedented crises. While routine emergencies require enormous
strength, the novelty of a crisis may call upon the creativity and
improvisation of emergency responders to marshal personnel and
supplies, reduce immediate dangers, and save lives.

Precaution, prevention, emergency
“Managing Crises” features a case study on Hurricane Katrina and what went
wrong in the handling of the disaster. Fundamentally, disasters on the level of
Katrina are chaotic, hard to manage, and unpredictable. A common
characteristic of natural disasters is that half of what emergency response
teams think they know about the emergency turns out to be wrong.
One of the challenges of crisis management is that governments spend a lot of
money and time on events that may not happen and are vulnerable to funding
cuts.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) provided a lot of money
to prepare “Hurricane Pam,” an emergency response plan for a potential
category three storm in New Orleans. Though Hurricane Pam did address
some of the scenarios later experienced in Katrina, funding was cut before
responders were able to execute all of the practice scenarios.

not because they are in some sense “easy,” but because the predictability of the general situation
permits agencies to prepare in advance and apply lessons from prior experience.

The novel features may result from threats never before encountered: from a more familiar event
occurring at an unprecedented scale, outstripping available resources; or from a confluence of

USA-Italia, a comparison
The United States has approximately 19,400 municipalities of varying
sizes, and Canada is home to nearly 3,700 more. In each community,
whatever its size, there are needs common to all human beings that
must be met through the provision of public works services. These
needs are met on a daily basis by visionary, values-driven, and
hardworking men and women who provide and sustain public works
services in the best interests of their communities.

30. FOUR RED THREADS IN FORMAN
“(1) urban regions, rather than cities or all-built metropolitan areas,
are the key big objects today and in our future;
(2) natural systems, or simply nature, and human uses of them in
an urban region are of major importance;
(3) all regional characteristics are changing, driven by growing
populations, more cities, and diverse urbanization patterns;
(4) using principles and a rich array of existing solutions, society
can significantly improve every distinctive urban region.”
Luca Marescotti

31. Linee d'azione
(a) maintaining diverse productive agricultural landscapes on the
best soils;
(b) concentrating rather than dispersing growth to reduce
infrastructure and servicing costs;
(c) investing in key areas for nature protection and nature-based
tourism;
(d) rethinking floodplain design to reduce flood-damage costs;
(e) targeting a handful of pollution sources, plus creating
stormwater wetlands, to increase a scarce supply of costly clean
water.
