Abstract:
This research project aims to analyze the crucial role of architecture in disaster resilience and post-disaster reconstruction. The study will explore the various ways in which architectural design and planning can contribute to mitigating the impact of natural disasters and facilitating the recovery process. By examining case studies and conducting in-depth analysis, this research seeks to provide valuable insights and recommendations for architects, urban planners, and policymakers to enhance disaster resilience and promote effective post-disaster reconstruction.
