Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research to build a multidimensional analytical model of flood resilience started in August 2019, in collaboration with the Center for Geographical Analysis (CGA) of the Institute for Quantitative Social Science (IQSS) at Harvard University. During the one and a half year stay at Harvard, interdisciplinary discussions with Professor Amrita of Asian Environmental Studies and researchers at CGA, as well as activities to strengthen international research networks at MIT, Boston University, Northeastern University, and other nearby universities were conducted. It is regrettable that the symposium on this research, which we had prepared to hold at Harvard University, was cancelled due to the impact of COVID-19 in 2020. However, as the expansion of COVID-19 has calmed down since 2022, we were able to resume our travel to the United States and proceed with the research almost as planned.
