1. 1. Potential and Limitations of the Sketch Map Tool in the International Red Cross Red Crescent Movement

   Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

   Författare :Kimon Letzner; [2024]
   Nyckelord :Disaster risk reduction; Participatory action research; Community risk mapping; International Red Cross Red Crescent Movement; Colombia; Technology and Engineering;

   Sammanfattning : In disaster risk management, participatory mapping (PM) closes spatial data gaps in communities by integrating local risk knowledge. The thesis examined the potential and limitations of the Sketch Map Tool (SMT) as a PM tool for community-based disaster risk reduction (DRR) through an International Red Cross Red Crescent Movement case study.

3. 2. Hur bra är bedömningar i kommunala risk- och sårbarhetsanalyser och handlingsplaner?

   Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Riskhantering (CI); Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

   Författare :Jonas Keutel; [2024]
   Nyckelord :Risk- och sårbarbetsanalys; RSA; kommunala analyser och handlingsplaner; Brierpoäng.; Technology and Engineering;

   Sammanfattning : In order to manage risks at the municipal level, in Sweden, there is legal requirements to create a risk and vulnerability analysis and an action plan. The question that started this work is what is the quality of judgments made in these reports, eventually land on focusing on probability assignments, and if there is anything that can make them better.

4. 3. Exploring risks of blue economy developments to people’s livelihood. A case study of Namibia’s coastal communities.

   Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för marina vetenskaper

   Författare :Femke van Toor; [2023-02-13]
   Nyckelord :Blue Economy; Risks; Livelihoods; Ecosystem services; Marine management;

   Sammanfattning : Fuelled by the vision of the blue economy, marine sectors are developing and expanding at a fast rate. Though intended to be done in a sustainable matter, such developments often come with a large set of uncertainties and possible impacts on the environment as well as on the coastal communities who are depending on the natural environment to sustain their livelihoods.
