Investigating the spatial distribution of environmental hazards and their impact on vulnerable communities. MSC

Abstract:
This research project aims to investigate the spatial distribution of environmental hazards and their impact on vulnerable communities. Environmental hazards, such as pollution, natural disasters, and climate change, pose significant risks to human populations, particularly those in marginalized and disadvantaged communities. By analyzing the spatial patterns of these hazards and their effects on vulnerable populations, this study seeks to provide valuable insights for policymakers and urban planners to develop effective strategies for mitigating the impacts of environmental hazards on communities at risk.
