The 2023 Bristol-Bern prize goes to Risky Cities: Living with Water in an Uncertain Future Climate led by Professor Briony McDonagh.
The overarching goal of the Risky Cities project is to research and develop ‘learning histories’ for flood-prone cities – and utilize these stories and experiences in community-based arts and heritage interventions which help communities learn from the past to build climate awareness and flood resilience today and for the future. Our initial case study was Kingston Upon Hull, UK, and we are now expanding our work to other UK and international cities.
