Poster for Research Workshop- Three Years After the 2023 Kahramanmaraş Earthquakes Insights from the Ground

On February 8, 2026, Fatma ÖzdoÄŸan led a workshop at the Tohoku University in Sendai, Japan for the third anniversary of the 2023 earthquakes in Southeastern Anatolia. The event brought together scholars based in Japan who have conducted, or are currently conducting, research on a range of disaster-related topics, including disaster education, risk governance, housing recovery, and memory studies. ÖzdoÄŸan introduced and discussed the TEMP project, situating it within broader conversations on post‑disaster knowledge and community memory. The program featured several presentations followed by a roundtable discussion that invited comparative perspectives and dialogue across research contexts.
