The international research project, developed through the collaboration between the University of Chieti and Pescara “G. d'Annunzio” and the École Nationale d'Architecture of Marrakech, aims to explore new strategies for emergency housing, with a focus on technological innovation and the resilience of temporary shelters. The main goal of the research is to define a more efficient housing module for post-earthquake scenarios, based on the analysis of the most advanced international solutions for first-response shelters. This study has made it possible to identify both the strengths and weaknesses of existing proposals, leading to the development of a housing model capable of improving living conditions during emergency phases. The objective is to propose an innovative housing module that not only addresses immediate post-disaster needs but is also adaptable to the specific socio-cultural characteristics of the affected populations. As a result of this work, the “DIVA—Variable Dimension Emergency Shelter” project was developed. This housing model stands out for its ability to adapt to the needs of different emergency phases, offering a versatile and customizable solution that effectively addresses post-earthquake challenges while ensuring respect for cultural specificities and improving quality of life.

Abstract
The international research project, developed through the collaboration between the University of Chieti and Pescara “G. d'Annunzio” and the École Nationale d'Architecture of Marrakech, aims to explore new strategies for emergency housing, with a focus on technological innovation and the resilience of temporary shelters. The main goal of the research is to define a more efficient housing module for post-earthquake scenarios, based on the analysis of the most advanced international solutions for first-response shelters. This study has made it possible to identify both the strengths and weaknesses of existing proposals, leading to the development of a housing model capable of improving living conditions during emergency phases. The objective is to propose an innovative housing module that not only addresses immediate post-disaster needs but is also adaptable to the specific socio-cultural characteristics of the affected populations. As a result of this work, the “DIVA—Variable Dimension Emergency Shelter” project was developed. This housing model stands out for its ability to adapt to the needs of different emergency phases, offering a versatile and customizable solution that effectively addresses post-earthquake challenges while ensuring respect for cultural specificities and improving quality of life.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
