Entities most subject to the effects of climate change are often undeveloped and located in disadvantaged regions. Post-disaster communities need to scrutinize the social, political, economic, and cultural structures that stagnate sustainable growth. Acknowledging that low economic development and high climate costs cannot coexist, this collected volume interrogates the challenge for disaster-prone territories to determine strategies for restructuring and redesigning their environment. This book proposes the creation of knowledge economies, whereby empowered communities may produce innovative knowledge translatable across the African diaspora. 410 0$aCatastrophes in context ;$vVolume 7. 606 $aKnowledge economy$zDeveloping countries 606 $aEconomic development$xEnvironmental aspects$zDeveloping countries 606 $aNatural disasters$xEconomic aspects$zDeveloping countries 606 $aNatural disasters$xPlanning$zDeveloping countries 606 $aAfrican diaspora 610 $aEnvironmental Studies (General), Political and Economic Anthropology, Development Studies. 615 0$aKnowledge economy 615 0$aEconomic development$xEnvironmental aspects 615 0$aNatural disasters$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aNatural disasters$xPlanning 615 0$aAfrican diaspora. 676 $a658.4038 702 $aWaldron-Moore$b Pamela 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996571843403316 996 $aDesigning Knowledge Economies for Disaster Resilience$93670346 997 $aUNISA
