A. Announcements 

1) Seminar: Safe System Approach and Way Towards Road Safety by Dr. Kunnawee Kanitpong

You are cordially invited to a public seminar via Zoom to be delivered by Dr. Kunnawee Kanitpong, Associate Professor in the Transportation Engineering (TRE) academic program, Department of Civil & Infrastructure Engineering (CIE) of the School of Engineering and Technology.

Seminar Topic: Safe System Approach and Way Towards Road Safety

The Safe System approach aims to eliminate fatal & serious injuries for all road users. This involves a holistic view of the road transport system that first anticipates human mistakes and second keeps impact energy on the human body at tolerable levels. Under the Safe System approach, road safety is a shared responsibility amongst everyone, including those that design, build, operate, and use the road system.  Safe System approach involves the interactions among roads and roadsides, vehicles, road users, and travel speeds.  The presentation will describe my previous and ongoing research on the way towards road safety by using Safe System principles.

Date: 25 October 2021 (Monday)

2) Delta Resilience and Risk Governance Expert Forum GBM, India

Join us in the Delta Expert Forum and enrich your understanding about the Asian Deltas!

As we are aware that River Deltas in South and Southeast Asia are being altered due to the natural and anthropogenic causes and delta dwellers and associated life, livelihood and development becoming more vulnerable. It is of utmost priority for us to create a space where we match the real challenges of the areas with the authorities who invest and address those challenges via plans/ policies and others.

Disaster Preparedness Mitigation and Management (DPMM), AIT in collaboration with Living Deltas Hub (LDH) is organizing the ‘Delta Resilience and Risk Governance Expert Forum’ with the aim of strengthening the research and expert/ administration coherence. The delta on focus for the first of the four-part 'Delta Resilience and Risk Governance Expert Forum' Series is the Ganga Brahmaputra Meghna (GBM) Delta, India. This forum brings together dignitaries who have been closely invested in research and administration in Ganga Brahmaputra Meghna Delta (GBM), India to deepen our understanding of the environmental and anthropogenic challenges followed by the necessity of the amalgamation of science and governance perspectives in building the delta resilience.The insights and discussion outcomes of the forum will contribute to link the actual on site experience and realities in the current and future plans, policies and strategies for strengthening the coherence, improving delta resilience, and eventually achieving delta sustainability.

Please feel free to circulate to your network.
