Summer schools
Summer schools bringen Wissenschafter*innen und Studierende aus verschiedenen Länder zusammen, die ein konkretes Thema in einem zeitlichen Rahmen von ein bis zwei Wochen erarbeiten. Sie sind wichtige Instrumente zum Lernen, Verstehen und Netzwerken in einem internationalen Umfeld.
Eine Summer School im Kaunertal
Dieses 10minütige Video wurde während einer Summer School im Kaunertal produziert. Internationale Expert*innen zeigen was passiert, wenn Gletscher zurückgehen und erodierbares Lockermaterial zurücklassen - und wie dies uns Menschen beeinflusst.
Summer School 2023
From 10.07.2023 till 14.07.2023 the Summer School: Risk and Resilience will take place.
Within this SummerSchool we will analyse the complex impact chains of hazard interactions, exposure, vulnerability, direct and indirect impacts within different sectors in one of four case study areas: Alps, Turkey, Romania and Caribbean. The case study in the Alps deals with the potential interruption of cross-border transportation between Austria and Italy (Brenner highway). The case study in Turkey evaluates the impact chains of a large earthquake in a megacity (Istanbul) and the lessons learned from the recent earthquakes in East Turkey/Syria. The case study from the Caribbean will deal with the impact of tropical storms on small islands. And the case study from Romania will deal with the impact of large cascading events on emergency response in Bucharest and surroundings. Within this summer school we will work in groups concentrating on one of the four case study sites.
Summer school language is English.
