Visioning Resilient Jodhpur

Under Building Resilient Urban Communities (BReUCom): A project funded under European Union Erasmus+ Program in the field of Capacity Building in Higher Education) www.breucom.eu

India’s arid and semi-arid climatic zones are traditionally heat-stressed. These are getting impacted the most due to changing climatic conditions. This programme focuses on developing a holistic understanding for enhancing the resilience of the built environment by exploring the various linkages between built structures, natural resources, socioeconomic conditions, technology, traditional knowledge practices, cultural capital, and community. Through the learnings from the field experience, the participants would be able to highlight the role of a built and unbuilt environment. This will help address the challenges of Pandemic and Climate Change in various urban and peri-urban areas for enhancing Jodhpur city’s resilience.

The wider dissemination of the development programme would help professionals in understanding the nuances of institutional resilience regarding the ability to manage challenges more effectively.
