Multi-hazard low-carbon resilient technologies and multi-scale digital services for a future-proof, sustainable & user-centred built environment
The built environment is ill-prepared for the increasing frequency and intensity of climate-related extreme events, resulting in socio-economic losses and public health concerns. While solutions to enhance resilience against specific hazards do exist, cost-effective and environmentally friendly approaches are needed. We also lack frameworks to assess climate resilience comprehensively. MULTICARE aims to improve the multi-hazard resilience of our built environment. It will develop innovative decision-support frameworks and easily implementable, low-carbon resilient technologies in a cost-effective yet sustainable manner. It will create digital tools for assessing, designing and managing multi-hazard resilience across various scales, enabling the development of resilient supply chains.
