- The course analyzes tools and techniques to know and manage emergencies, with reference to social contexts in which they persist over time,
and with reference to sudden emergency situations.
The method for managing emergencies is presented with reference to how to find information and data
and for their rigorous use.
The course analyzes the ways to use adequate empirical bases in actions for the concrete management of the emergency,
in relation to different phenomena,
in order to develop procedures for combating vulnerabilities and for security. - Reference texts

The exam verifies knowledge on emergency as social phenomenon, and the ability to understand complexity of emergency situations, both with reference to the definition of a phenomenon as an emergency, and with reference to the techniques for managing emergencies of different kinds - Extended program
- The course analyzes
different fields of research on emergencies, through procedures for processing information and data.
In the case of emergencies, social changes are read through the main fields of transformation: from climate to terrorism, from migration to demography, the conceptualization of emergency is proposed in a critical way. The critical reading deconstructs the main contemporary themes of risk, emergency and threat. In this perspective, information and data management corresponds to the effort to overcome, through methodological rigor, the media narratives relating to some specific emergencies. - Obiettivi Agenda 2030 per lo sviluppo sostenibile
- The course considers contexts in which emergencies (such as environmental emergency) show a relationship with the 2030 Agenda (sustainable cities and communities; clean and affordable energy)
