Melody Dumont (PhD candidate) presents in French her research on the impacts of recovery projects in the aftermath of the 2017 catastrophe in North Kyushu, South Japan (Kuro and Akatani watersheds)

Melody has been researching the role of the sediment events against the reconstruction projects on the landscape change and how the valley has changed. She has used the spatial framework of the “Satoyama” to express her ideas, and she also looked at how how disaster risk is also disrupting the intangible landscape, such as “matsuri” (festivals). If you are around the CNRS UMR Lavue, a seminar not to miss.
