| Popis: | In the period between 2011 and 2014, Observatorio Panamericano de Paisaje, Territorio y Arquitectura OPPTA simultaneously worked upon risk in five Latin American cities under the topic Emergency Interventions caused by natural and anthropogenic risk phenomena. To do so, the organization developed a concurrent methodology of research, proposals and action which helps analyze and compare processes, methods and ways of approaching infrastructural, architectural, landscape, social and economic issues relating to risk, natural disasters, changing climate and human pressure on the environment. It settled mechanisms and processes that allow to work through a multidisciplinary and transnational network. In the process, this network involves researchers, professionals and institutions from de public and private sector. A preliminary diagnosis, among other candidates, have selected five sites for the implementation of proposals. OPPTA conducted intensive research background and at the same time located strategic partners: universities, public institutions, civil society, and others. The proposed methodology is based on the development of five programs: Active Debates, OPPTA Competition, Priority Action, WikiPan and Publications, which deal respectively with research, specific architecture and landscape proposal, project implementation and finally the creation of an open database and the publication, which included the dissemination of results. |
