Centre for Disaster Resilience, University of Salford, UK No 1 in Research Power in Built Environment (UK Government RAE 6*) www.disaster-resilience.salford.ac.uk/ Professor Dilanthi Amaratunga r.d.g.amaratunga@salford.ac.uk ; www.dilanthiamaratunga.net Dr Richard Haigh r.p.haigh@salford.ac.uk; www.richardhaigh.info Developing societal resilience to disasters of natural and human origin Built environment emphasis but with strong links to other disciplines

Centre for Disaster Resilience Advisory panel members to UNISDR Making Cities Resilient Editors of the International Journal of Disaster Resilience in the Built Environment Experience of bidding for and managing major multi-national & multi-partners projects in this and related fields e.g., under FW6 & FW7, Asia-Link, Life-Long Learning Research interests: resilience; capacity building; risk reduction; building simulation and modelling; conflict prevention; gender; community participation)

Forthcoming proposal under resilience of society to catastrophic events Modelling and simulating resilience in cities to more effectively manage hazard risks Modelling of physical, social, natural and economic dimensions of resilience Strong existing links with institutions in third countries and some EU countries Seek partnerships with relevant actors for hazard risk reduction (including but not limited to: insurance, finance, central & local government, risk assessment, infrastructure,  social anthropology, urban planning, hydro-meteorological modelling)
