Aim of the sub-project:

to support the most effective implementation of the research on sustainability, and resilience - the societal challenges of climate change, and adaptation to it, with a specific approach and research methods from the disciplines of military science and military engineering.

A particular focus will be on assessing and analyzing the impacts of war and armed conflict on the built and natural environment, and on providing generalizable lessons learned. His research methods include the analysis of national and international literature, interviews, and discussion of results in group discussions and conferences.

Results to date:

We have designed the content and form of a roll-up presentation that presents the main objectives of the project based on the creation story. It is currently being produced.

We have been participated in the international conference (22 November 2022), where Mihály Boda, József Padányi, Gábor Major also presented.
