Christchurch after the Earthquakes: Recovery from a Catastrophe

Mon. 2:00-3:30 p.m., Centennial E

What would an optimal recovery from a regional catastrophe look like? This panel—most of whom lived and worked in Christchurch during the devastating 2010-2011 series of earthquakes—will discuss how the recovery is going from multiple perspectives, including economic, social, cultural, and the built-environment.
