SEI examines how individuals, communities and local government in southern Africa are responding to these challenges, and how risk communication and information exchange can support improved decision-making.

The focus is a case study in Sekhukhune, South Africa, which links contextual narratives, field surveys and representations in formal ontologies and agent-based models, and tests new methods of field-based validation.
