Workshops' contents

Monday January 26th, 2015 - 3.00 p.m. - 5.30 p.m.

The general framework of workshop’s themes is aimed to point out institutional, stakeholders and local communities’ inputs in order to gain a wider commitment in DRM, DRR, and CCA under the “umbrella approach” of Resilience considered as a concrete opportunity for the improvement of territorial and socio-economic planning practices toward the current issues of “Sustainable Development” and “Climate Change”.

 

The workshops are organized as “Open discussion” aimed at collecting contributions and proposals in an organic document whose relevant points will be discussed in the following plenary section and shared among participants in order to promote future actions

 

Workshop n.1: Integrating DRR, CCA and Sustainable Development in land use governance models: from territorial planning to urban renewal.

 

Disaster Risks Reduction and Climate Change Adaptation have been considered under several different perspectives: from the technological dimension to the organizational and procedural one. The workshop aims at assessing the implication of regional and urban planning tools in DRR and CCA being based on the fact that risks are consequences of territorial transformation and risks mitigation depends on planning decisions and instruments intended as public interest tools, involving and driving the local communities toward a more conscious behaviours in territorial sustainability. Such complex assumption will be discussed in a multidisciplinary framework including the following main themes:

  • ­territorial planning practices and experiences;

  • ­risk assessment and local authorities roles and commitments;

  • ­normative framework (laws and regulations, building codes, etc.);

  • ­multilevel governance;

  • ­infrastructures development and territorial transformations;

  • socio-economic development contribution and perspectives and investments for risks mitigation and climate change;

  • energy and sustainability;

  • ­citizens’ commitment and sustainable behaviours promotion.

 

Workshop n.2: The Regional Civil Protection System and Volunteers Organizations in Emergency Planning and Management (DRM) 

 

The Italian Civil Protection represents an effective model worldwide. It includes a complex chain of involved bodies. Among them the volunteers organizations represent the operative level, and contribute to the dissemination of territorial communities involvement towards Disaster Risks Management.

The workshop intends to exploit the wide experience in DRM developed at institutional and ONG level in order to highlight the success factors but also the weakest points in the Civil Protection Mechanism at the state of the art.

Such discussion will be addressed to enhance the following issues:

  • ­how to shift the intensity of Civil Protection Model from the Emergency Management to the risks prevention?

  • ­how to invest in risks mitigation through innovative models and Pubic Private People Partnership in order to improve territorial and socio-economic resilience?

 

Workshop n.3: Interregional experiences and best practices in DRR, Climate Change Risks Mitigation and Resilience: II Open Day REMIDA project - smaRt Energy chains and coMmunIties in the meD Area (the workshop will be also on live-streaming on the website:  www.provincia.potenza.it)

 

To compare and discuss transnational experiences and Best Practices concerning sustainability is a precondition for the improvement of institutional efforts in Climate Change policies and risks mitigation. EU transnational cooperation instruments improved the institutional commitment toward information, data, procedures dissemination for success story developed at local level in order to generate a common knowledge and tools background for facing global challenges.

REMIDA project is working in such direction, so promoting methodologies and exchanges tools in the EU Covenant of Majors framework and its local implications.

The workshop aims at enlarging the benchmark in a global vision of sustainable practices in several interventions domains in order to contribute to Resilience’s  ‘mosaic’ in territorial policies and management.
