Participative Approaches to Post-Disaster Reconstruction at the Local Level
Day / Time Thursday, June 22nd / 16:30 - 18:30
Event Description
The involvement of citizens in post-disaster reconstruction planning and implementation at the local level is usually very limited. This has demonstrably led to ineffective and unsustainable reconstruction efforts. In this event, practical examples from tsunami-affected areas in India will be provided on how citizens and citizen groups can successfully work with local authorities in an integral approach to reconstruction, leading to better results.
