Unfortunately, the core ISEPEI courses (“Geospatial Technologies for Monitoring Water- and Health-related SDGs” and the "Innovations in Disaster and Climate Risk Reduction") and the ISEPEI-SUN Weekend Workshops, originally planned to be held between 22 June and 6 July, 2020, had to be re-scheduled for October, 2020. 

Another guest lecture was hosted by Systems Laboratory on March 11. This time John Patterson, Regional Advisor for USAID's Office of US Foreign Disaster Assistance (OFDA), discussed OFDA's approach to Disaster Risk Reduction: how they develop their strategy, work with partners to identify activities, coordinate cooperation with donors, and how they envision foreign assistance contributing to positive preparedness outcomes.
