The module provides participants with an understanding of different aspects of post disaster recovery issues and practices, and their complexity. More broadly, it will contribute to students鈥� abilities to critically assess the ways in which actors are engaged in post disaster recovery processes through interactions of the physical environment, policy frameworks, governance and community action.

Post-disaster (re)construction practices and outcomes, and the policy-making processes that preclude them, depend on many contextual factors 鈥� the relations between local governments, civil organizations, and international agencies; the dynamics between public and private sectors; the amount and source of reconstruction funding; and the ability of people and communities to voice their needs and demands. A plethora of manuals, policy frameworks, and guidelines highlight a growing consensus regarding the significance of participation, of linking reconstruction to long-term development and livelihood promotion, of encouraging local building techniques, and of avoiding displacement. However, despite the wide adoption of these and other certain principles, there still exists a profound disparity between practice, implementation and policy declarations.

Along these lines, the module looks at post disaster recovery from a number of differing perspectives and through a variety of disciplinary approaches and case studies. In particular, it focuses on debates surrounding response, rehabilitation and reconstruction planning from a developmental perspective and intersecting with migration studies, conflict studies and reflections on displacement and settlement. As such, it offers a chance to reflect upon reconstruction dynamics and how they impact on space and spatial manifestations, mass displacement and processes of housing and re-housing. In addition to the above the module will elaborate on the conceptual premises over space/place as socio-material discursive practices and looking at it intersections with conflict-induced movements and colonial strategies of containments.

The module will offer critical investigations into the complexities and bringing a fresh and interdisciplinary look at the 鈥渞ecovery space鈥� drawing from experience in both disasters as well as conflict recovery processes intersecting with critical theory, decolonial and race studies as well as political ecology scholarship.

This module is organised according to weekly teaching units, composed of weekly face-to-face encounters on campus (as indicated on the weekly DPU timetable) supported by readings and up to one-hour of asynchronous activities (including but not limited to short pre-recorded lectures) accessible on the module-specific Moodle page. Students are expected to dedicate approximately 150 learning hours per module per term, amounting to around 10-12 hours per week (for full-time students). The asynchronous activities will be released on a weekly basis via Moodle announcement, so you must keep pace with the module. Each required learning activity has a indicative amount of time to guide you. You are expected to participate actively in all module activities and your participation will be routinely monitored. Over the course of the module, each participant is expected to engage in the learning activities by drawing on the literature and on his/her personal and practical experience. Participants should read at least the core readings (provided electronically via Moodle) and complete all asynchronous activities for each teaching unit. This is a 15 Credits module. The primary mode of operation is lectures, with associated discussion sessions, supplemented by readings and seminars. Students will be asked to engage in discussions and offer analytical view on readings and lectures. Guest鈥檚 speakers and experts will be invited for some specific sessions to offer field experiences.
