In the summer of 2021, the municipalities on the Ahr and Rur rivers were affected by one of the worst flood disasters in recent decades. Reconstruction is a task of historic dimensions - and at the same time a unique opportunity. While the initial focus was on acute aid, reconstruction strategies were subsequently developed. These are currently being implemented. What has been achieved in the past three years? What priorities are being set for reconstruction and what role do resilience criteria play in this? We would like to discuss with Hermann-Josef Pelgrim, Managing Director of the Bad Neuenahr-Ahrweiler development company, and Dr. Carmen Krämer, Mayor of Monschau, how reconstruction could be made more resilient in the future. We will explore the question of what adjustments are necessary for resilient, adaptable and transformative urban development.

The colloquium will take place digitally via Zoom.
