Introduction
Charlotte Monteil is a Geographer, specialised in disaster and risks linked to natural hazards.
She has completed her PhD in 2018 at the University of East Anglia, on post-disaster recovery processes. She was specifically interested on social networks and memory construction for building resilience after a volcanic disaster, on the Caribbean island of Montserrat. She did several post doc in Lancaster University, East Anglia University and Montpellier University

The post-disaster period is critical for reducing vulnerability and building resilience. Social capital plays an important role in generating and maintaining risk reducing behaviour and a rich evidence base demonstrating its contribution to the recovery process exists. Yet, so far little distinction has been made between the different types of soci...
This publication presents experiences from researchers and practitioners from a variety of geographical contexts on how they have been included and have participated in disaster prevention, preparedness, response and recovery activities. It aims to highlight the importance and benefits of, as well as options for, integrating migrants into decision-...
Reducing the risk of disaster linked to major flash floods requires multi-scale preparedness measures. The Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction encourages the involvement of vulnerable people as technical measures are often insufficient to decrease the risk of disaster. Yet local authorities often struggle to motivate people to prepare, eve...
Sustainable post-disaster recovery implies learning from past experience in order to prevent recreating forms of vulnerability. Memory construction supports both the healing process and redevelopment plans. Hence, memory of disaster results from the balance between remembering, forgetting, and absencing elements of the disaster, and can be both a t...

The workshop will tackle the concept of cascading human-natural hazards in the context of a coastal megacity catchment and specifically within the Red River-Hanoi-Delta (RRHD) catchment. The RRHD provides critical supplies of food, energy, water and socio-economic resources to a population of ~30m. The potential for loss of life and livelihoods in the RRHD is significant in the face of future changes to climate, sea-level, and land-management. Multiple coupled natural and human hazards and stakeholders means that hazards may interact and cascade through the system.
The outcome will include a strategy and roadmap for the development of a RRHD catchment observatory, new research skills and community in both countries, and a more accessible body of research expertise, data and tools. We expect to write a synthesis paper for the journal Earth's Future (AGU/Wiley) that all Workshop participants are invited to participate and co-author.
