Building back better: Participatory governance in a post-Haiyan world

“重建得更好”已成为灾后恢复国家的全球口号。该项目旨在研究如何将这一原则从重建抗灾能力强的有形基础设施扩展到恢复参与性治理机构，以确保恢复工作的包容性和增强权能。通过在菲律宾遭受2013年台风“海燕”袭击最严重的城市进行多地点人种志研究，将开发一个有理论依据和实践基础的分析工具包，以衡量灾后重建的民主质量。该项目旨在深入了解参与式治理在后海燕世界中也可以“更好地建设”的确切方式。

'Building back better' has become a global mantra for countries recovering from disasters. This project aims to examine how this principle can be extended from rebuilding disaster-resilient physical infrastructure to rehabilitating institutions of participatory governance to ensure the inclusive and empowering character of recovery efforts. Through a multi-sited ethnography in cities worst hit by the 2013 Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines, a theoretically-informed and empirically-grounded analytical toolkit that gauges the democratic quality of post-disaster reconstruction will be developed. The project aims to generate insights into the precise ways in which participatory governance can also be 'built better' in a post-Haiyan world.
