Abstract

What does it really mean to reconstruct a city after a natural, biological or man-made disaster? Is the repair and reinstatement of buildings and infrastructure sufficient without the mending of social fabric? We believe that the true measure of successful reconstruction should be societal. After all a city without people is no city at all. Invisible Reconstruction seeks the exchange of global knowledge and experiences to change current thinking on disaster preparedness and recovery and promote best practices that understand the fundamental role and lasting benefit of reinforcing and repairing the intangible threads that create societies.
