Abstract
This detailed report covers a one-day scoping workshop for faculty members and experts involved in disaster and climate change work, held at the University of the Philippines-Resilience Institute (UP-RI). The process by which “expert knowledge” is generated, communicated to, and utilized by policymakers in mitigating the impacts of disasters and climate change, remains underexplored both academically and in practice. The conference workshop included a network mapping of experts and participants who work in climate change and Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) and Management.
