“…Nelayan adalah sumber daya paling besar yang memanfaatkan sumber-sumber kelautan untuk kelangsungan hidupnya. Dalam menjalani ritme kehidupannya itu, ia menyatu dengan alam lingkungannya, pengalaman-pengalaman dalam mengarungi lautan menjadi referensi nelayan untuk mengeksploitasi sumber daya di dalamnya (Misrina, Rahardjo, Rusyidi, & Gunawan, 2022;Pagán-Trinidad, Lopez, & Diaz, 2019;Suharso & Sarbini, 2018). Pemanfaatan sumber daya tersebut dilakukan dengan strategi penyesuaian terhadap lingkungan di antaranya dengan pengetahuan teknologi tagkap ikan yang dimilikinya.…”

The purpose of this study was to determine fishermen’s perceptions about the importance of children’s formal education, and the factors that influence fishermen’s perceptions. The data were collected by observation, interviews, and documentation. The subject of this study was parents and children who continue their education and those who are not. The study showed that there are still parents who think that education is not important. It is a waste of time, money, energy and thought. Education is considered a way to get a job, even though it can also be by helping parents to work. Besides, there are also some parents who think that education is very important for their children’s future. The factors that influence the fishermen’s perception are parental education, inadequate economics, environment and parent’s motivation.

“…With the growing demand to address climate change impacts, such knowledge is critical for the future engineering workforce to develop a resilient built environment. Very few studies have discussed educating students about resilient design solutions against flood disasters (Lopez del Puerto et al , 2019; Pagán-Trinidad et al , 2019; Salzman et al , 2018). Although these studies have adopted resilience concepts through different teaching approaches, there remains a gap in introducing the resilient urban design concept, SF, to AEC students and assessing their interest to learn such concepts.…”

Purpose Safe-to-fail (SF) is an emerging resilient design approach that has the potential to minimize the severity of flood damages. The purpose of this study is to explore the SF design strategies to reduce flood disaster damages in US coastal cities. Therefore, this study addresses two research questions: identifying the most suitable SF criteria and flood solution alternatives for coastal cities from industry professionals’ perspective; and investigating the controlling factors that influence the AEC students’ interest to learn about SF concepts through the curricula. Design/methodology/approach This study used the analytical hierarchy process to evaluate the SF criteria and flood solutions where data were collected through surveying 29 Department of Transportation professionals from different states. In addition, the study adopted a quantitative methodology by surveying 55 versed participants who reside in a coastal area and have coastal flood experiences. The data analysis included ordinal probit regression and descriptive analysis. Findings The results suggest that robustness is the highest weighted criterion for implementing SF design in coastal cities. The results demonstrated that ecosystem restoration is the highest-ranked SF flood solution followed by green infrastructure. Moreover, the results highlighted that age, duration spent in the program and prior knowledge of SF are significantly related to AEC students’ interest to learn this concept. Originality/value SF design anticipates failures while designing infrastructures thus minimizing failure consequences due to flood disasters. The findings can facilitate the implementation of the SF design concept during the construction of new infrastructures in coastal cities as well as educate the future workforces to contribute to developing resilient built environments.

“…Likewise, they can also be classified as structural and non-structural alternatives. However, independently of the flood alternatives chosen as most appropriate to be applied to a specific case, formal and professional education and capacity building are required to address the sustainable and resilient mitigation of flood impacts in the future [4].…”

“…All these settings are available for firsthand assessment and evaluation from the educational and research perspective. Puerto Rico will be in a continuous development process focusing on providing a more resilient community and infrastructure to families, and individuals [4]. This paper focuses on two educational initiatives: the UPRM-DHS Coastal Resilience Center of Excellence (CRC) funded by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and the Resilient Infrastructure and Sustainability Education Undergraduate Program (RISE-UP) funded by the Hispanic Serving Institution (HSI) division of the National Science Foundation (NSF).…”

Coastal Communities are exposed to multiple hazards including hurricanes, storm surges, waves, and riverine flash floods. This paper presents the outcome of a Basin-wide Flood Multi-hazard Risks module that was developed and offered as part of a collaboration between two research projects: the UPRM-DHS Coastal Resilience Center of Excellence (CRC) funded by the Department of Homeland Security and the Resilient Infrastructure and Sustainability Education Undergraduate Program (RISE-UP) funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF). The content was designed to give students an understanding of complex project management in coastal communities. The main learning objective was for students to be able to assess and recognize the actions that can be taken to improve resiliency in coastal communities. Students learned how to manage multi-hazard floods. Through knowledge gained by participating in lectures, discussions, and the development of case studies, students were able to assess flood risk and current mitigation strategies for coastal communities in Puerto Rico. The learning experience provided an overview of the history, needs, and challenges that coastal communities face regarding flood and coastal hazards. Through the case studies, students were able to appreciate and understand the risk exposure on the natural and built infrastructure, and the importance of always taking into consideration the social impact.
