Scientific Abstract

Bridging GAPS is an interdisciplinary hybrid workshop organised by the Institute of Geography at FAU Erlangen-Nuremberg and moderated by the GAPS Network Malawi. Founded in 2024, the network brings together researchers from nine different countries to strengthen links between disaster risk reduction (DRR) research in Malawi, promote multidisciplinarity oriented towards the everyday lives of residents and practitioners, and strengthen academic and non-academic cooperation to achieve sustainable transformation. The network encompasses the disciplines of geography, anthropology, political science and sociology.
