Title:
Blessing in Disguise: How do Cities Recover from Disasters?
Abstract:
This paper addresses the intriguing issue of whether natural disasters do not only
generate negative impacts on society, but, in the long run – under favourable andeffective policy and behavioural responses – also positive outcomes. This challenging
resilience question is formulated here as the ‘ Blessing in Disguise ’ hypothesis. The
aim of the present study – to examine under what conditions natural hazards may lead to positive socio-economic
outcomes in the long run – is empirically addressed from a resilience perspective, by integrating in one researchframework a Stimulus-Response model and a Capability-Theory-inspired framing of territorial opportunities incoping with natural disasters, by using a mix of statistical and econometric analyses such as multiple linear
regression, cluster analysis, stimulus-response adjusted difference-indifference model. Our findings show that
‘Blessing in Disguise’ scenario is partially a valid proposition that manifest itself differently in different geographic,social-economic, political and institutional contexts. Although there is not a single pattern of development specificin all cases, it is clear that certain positive trends can be observed both at the state level, but also at the regionallevel. The analysed data showed rather incremental change after recent natural disasters (especially in the longterm) at country level, but more radical changes can be differentiated at regional scale. Conclusively, dealing withdisasters requires certain capacities and appears to create a window of opportunity for improved capabilities, but it
is only a possibility that can or cannot be transformed into a sustainable form of development.

Title: Energy transition and digital twins in modern cities
Abstract:
Climate change, energy transition needs and the current energy crisis have prompted
cities to implement far-reaching changes in public energy supply. The present paper
seeks to map out the conditions for sustainable energy provision and use, with aparticular view to the role of citizens in a quadruple helix context. Citizen
participation is often seen as a sine qua non for a successful local or district energy
policy in an urban area but needs due scientific and digital support based on evidence-based knowledge (usingproper user-oriented techniques such as Q-analysis). The paper sets out to explore the citizen engagement andknowledge base for drastic energy transitions in the city based on the newly developed “diabolo” model, in whichin particular digital tools (e.g., dashboards, digital twins) are proposed as useful tools for the interface between
citizens and municipal policy. The approach adopted in this paper is empirically illustrated for local energy policyin the city of Rotterdam.
