On 14 March 2019, the city of Beira was hit twice by Cyclone Idai causing large-scale destruction – 90% of the physical urban asset was damaged – and going down in history as the first case of a city completely devastated by the effects of climate change.\u00a0
In the following days, entire areas were submerged underwater as floodwaters rose. Families were separated as they fled the rising waters, while others were trapped, unable to access basic services. Estimations tell that 1.85 millions of people were affected by the hazard and more than 58.600 buildings have been damaged, including 36.750 totally destroyed.
The Mozambican government, in collaboration with other international agencies and NGOs, started to provide support and rushed a resettlement process towards safer sites located in remote rural areas. This has meant for many residents to move away from their neighbourhood, and start a new life from scratch, where, still today, they rely exclusively on humanitarian aid for their survival.\u00a0Other NGOs have instead opted for a different strategy focusing on the reconstruction of some neighbourhood of Beira, by adopting a resilience-oriented approach.

The objective of this interdisciplinary Master Thesis Lab is to support Comunit\u00e0 di Sant’Egidio\u00a0in developing\u00a0<\/span><\/span>a vision for the future of the city. Students will work on cross-cutting disciplinary issues such as climate change, hydro-geological risk, energy, resilience, sustainability, heritage, resettlement and reconstruction.
