Summaries of recent webinars

In the wake of the pandemic, REA shifted the emphasis of its online seminar series to focus on talks related to the intersection of COVID-19 and resilience engineering.

PhD students helpfully generated summaries of these talks, to increase interaction knowledge sharing. A handout consolidating the talks was prepared as basis for talk 07: As the pandemic continues, still betting against the odds diverse patters of adapting to global challenges.
