This session emphasizes a strategy that develops risk information from official and crowd-sourced data, and communicates it to disaster managers to encourage better decision making. Participants will be exposed to approaches in three locations (Jakarta, Indonesia, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, and Oaxaca/Mexico City, Mexico) that leveraged citizen-generated map data and social media for disaster risk identification and communication.
