Lead Researcher at Utrecht University
Annisa Triyanti is an Assistant Professor of Disaster and Climate Risk Governance for Sustainability at the Environmental Governance Group, Copernicus Institute of Sustainable Development. Her research focuses on addressing water-related disasters in coastal and delta regions, especially in Asian Region (Indonesia, Vietnam, India).

Social capital, an ecosystem approach and community-based disaster risk management are the focus of her attention. Triyanti identifies factors of successful disaster mitigation and explores new ways to improve its governance.
