Initiation of a Leadership Program that addresses practical and relevant needs of leadership in engineering, technology and development. Initiation of a Capacity Building for Development Initiative to meet the needs for integrated, sustainable and practical capacity building programs for development. Research and consultancy interests in risk assessment and management of natural hazards for systems and communities. 1. Quantification of loss; hazards modeling; vulnerability modeling; planning; design, construction and rebuilding (post-disaster); emergency response; community recovery; deterministic and probabilistic quantitative risk assessments. 2. Risk management decision-making under uncertainty for disaster planning, response and recovery/rebuilding. 3. Community resilience to disasters. Developing risk assessment and management strategies and operations for community/provincial-wide planning, response and recovery. Policy development includes risk quantification and risk management options, while operations comprises integration of tools for disaster data acquisition (historical and real-time), data analysis and representation, probabilistic and deterministic representation, and decision-making considering available information for planning or real-time decisions.
