Silver Oak I

New Delhi, India

Indian Habitat Centre
Description
This event is hosted by Disaster Mitigation Working Group of APAN and collaborated with Disaster Mitigation Competence Centre of EGI-Engage Project. Disaster Mitigation Working Group aims to establish collaboration network of disaster mitigation for sustainable development of Asia. Developing numerical simulation facilities based on deeper understandings of sciences behind the natural hazards are the primary goal. Based on case studies and data analytics, more accurate and efficient simulation models would be produced and used for future events. Capacity building is also the focus by sharing the knowledge and resources from partners, campaigns of masterclasses and dissemination activities.
