Side Event Hands-On Workshop Embedding Indigenous Knowledge in Disaster Risk Reduction – 12 October 2023

Risk communicators usually find a complex environment in which to work, because stories about disasters tend to be about destruction and are most often reactive.

How do we trigger meaningful conversations about disasters before they happen, with a positive, creative and participatory approach?

In this workshop, students will learn about new tools for putting theory into practice and creating culturally relevant awareness campaigns.

Drawing from diverse experiences around the world, innovative tools. case studies and methodologies will be presented as inspiration, including music, art, technology and more.
