Policymakers and practitioners attending a high-level EU resilience conference found themselves making 3-D models of their disaster experiences in the ‘Flood Suitcase’ workshop run by CUIDAR members from ¿ì²¥ÊÓÆµ. Alison Lloyd Williams and Maggie Mort introduced innovative methods used at ¿ì²¥ÊÓÆµ to explore children’s experiences of disaster at the Conference, March 2017 in Dordrecht, the Netherlands.
Professor Mort said: ‘it was fascinating to see how tactile and 3-D approaches can be used with adults who are unused to articulating experience through non-verbal methods’. The workshop included a task to sensitise policymakers and practitioners to the needs and perspectives of disaster-affected children living in Europe.
