Title: De la vulnérabilité des infrastructures essentielles à la vulnérabilité territoriale face aux aléas géo-hydrologiques en milieu tropical : le cas de la ville de Bujumbura (Burundi)

The aim of this doctoral research is to highlight the infrastructures essential to the functioning of a city located in a tropical environment, and their vulnerability to geo-hydrological hazards. It also aims to assess the transmission of this vulnerability to other infrastructures and to the urban area as a whole.

Jean will present the results of his PhD thesis, conducted in the Geography Department under the supervision of Sabine Henry.
