Following you can find the FOKO programme for the recent summer term. The thematic priority of this term is Spatial Risk Management and Climate Impact Research.
An overview of all dates is available here.
What is the Research Colloquium?
The Research Colloquium (FOKO) covers current research projects at the School of Spatial Planning. Its aim is to explore new research fields, to build links between research projects and to show new ways for the development of spatial planning as a science. The colloquium addresses students, faculty members, and practitioners.
Where and when?
FOKO takes place every Thursday from 2.15 to 3.45 pm at TU Dortmund University, South Campus, GB III, August-Schmidt-Str. 10, Room 214,. There are no sessions during the spring and summer breaks. For further details see the posters put up at various locations on the campus one week before each session.

This presentation reflects research completed as part of the collaborative effort for the Marie Curie Initial Training Network, Changing Hydro-meteorological Risks as Analyzed by a New Generation of European Scientists (CHANGES) under the EU’s Seventh Framework Programme for Research (FP7). Within four pre-determined case studies, (France, Italy, Poland and Romania), the research identifies risk assessment, risk management and risk communication as the different components of risk governance within a comparative framework. The end result of the comparative analysis works toward the creation of guidelines for good risk governance practices that are commonly applicable as well as those elements that have to be tailor-made for the regional context of each case study region.
