Abstract

This paper explains the rationale behind the European Commission funded EURASIA research project, emphasising the importance of the role of built and human education curricular in post-disaster recovery management. The project is an international collaboration between five European and Asian higher education institutions. This research specifically uses the post-tsunami recovery of Sri Lanka as a case study to identify the current gaps in built and human environment education, specifically related to post-disaster recovery management.
The objective of this paper is to improve the academic rigour of the EURASIA research through presenting the justification of this research to a wider research community along with its proposed methodology and the expected outcomes.
