Decision-making in disaster risk models Featuring Rachel Davidson

CHEER researchers focus on understanding decision-making among all the players involved in sustaining a resilient coastal community. Davidson details how stakeholders – insurers, government agencies, and residents -- have different, reasonable, and conflicting goals. CHEER’s goal is to find policy solutions that will manage hazard risks as well as ensure economic development in coastal communities vulnerable to hurricanes. It’s a new approach to building a sustainable disaster risk management system in the U.S. Subscribe to the CHEER newsletter https://www.drc.udel.edu/cheer-chronicle-announcement-june-2024/ Follow CHEER on LInkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/company/cheer-hub/posts/?feedView=all CHEERHub website https://www.drc.udel.edu/cheer/ Read about the NHERI-CHEER partnershiphttps://www.designsafe-ci.org/community/news/2024/july/nheri-partners-cheer-hub-hurricane-decision-making-framework/ CHEERHub’s NSF award summaryhttps://www.nsf.gov/awardsearch/showAward?AWD_ID=2209190&HistoricalAwards=false Rachel Davidson is an accomplished academic and research engineer.
