Scyma provides dynamic, inter-disciplinary research and solutions for safe and resilient buildings, the people who live in them, and governments that develop policy for public safety in light of increasing natural hazards and climate change.

Natural Hazard Resilience

We provide unique and customized services for natural hazard risk reduction and social and technical resilience. Through risk governance and risk communication strategies, Scyma works to create safe and robust communities. We can inform the needs of decision makers with projective and scenario-based analyses of domestic and international hazard contexts for appropriate public policy. We are also proactive in disaster resilience education and awareness to help prepare individuals and cities for imminent natural hazard events. Scyma offers consulting services for life-cycle costs and material flows, earthquake engineering, building performance, and emergency preparedness and planning.
