Abstract
|
The project approaches the real case of Isabela of Sagua, an small town of fishermen located in the northern coast of the central region of Cuba, place that it receives frequent hurricanes and other natural extreme events. Taking advantage of the existent local capacities, so much natural and environmental, as of the local economy, it thinks about a strategy that embraces the stages before and after the disaster, combining in a novel way the local possibilities of preventive preparation, with emergency actions and post-disaster recovery. The project intends solutions of popular housings using the ecomaterials for build houses and the use of the red mangrove, an important natural resource used by the fishermen for multiple uses. These proposals can be of direct application for the community and for the local decision-makers.
