Vulnerabilities is a symposium that will run across all or part of the Institute of Hazard, Risk and Resilience’s 10th anniversary conference on The Impact of Hazard, Risk and Disasters on Societies. Vulnerabilities is supported by the Institute of Hazard, Risk and Resilience, the Matariki Network of Universities, and is part of the Fragile Futures research initiative. The keynote speaker for the symposium will be Don Kulick (Uppsala University).
