Through a Comedic Glass, Darkly: Ethics, Humor, and Home Ownership in Spain’s Early Technocratic Years (1957–1963)

The current essay analyzes three oppositional film comedies produced during Franco’s totalitarian regime, after Spain transitioned to an Opus Dei technocratic rule and after the Ministry of Housing was created to solve the chronic lodging problems of the time. My analysis focuses on how La vida por delante/ Life Ahead (Dir. Fernando Fernán Gómez, 1958), El pisito/ The Little Apartment (Dir. Marco Ferreri, 1959), and El verdugo/ The Executioner (Dir. Luis García Berlanga, 1963) humorously critique the contemporaneous housing predicaments and the existing residential legislation. The article argues that these comedies effectively breach the hegemonically sanctioned thresholds of ethical, political, and aesthetic decorum of contemporaneous Spain by successfully resorting to an eminently materialistic, antimelodramatic discourse and to unsympathetic characters, prone to successive moral capitulations in their desperate chase for a decent housing and social advancement.

Disentangling the complex impacts of urban digital transformation and environmental pollution: Evidence from smart city pilots in China

Existing studies are mixed about whether smart city construction (SCC) can alleviate urban environmental pollution. This study takes three batches of smart city pilots implemented by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development of China as a quasi-natural experiment. We construct the panel dataset of 286 prefecture-level cities in China covering the period 2006 to 2018, then applies the multi-stage difference-in-differences method to investigate the environmental benefits of SCC policies. The results show that SCC can significantly reduce air pollution by 2.6% ∼ 18 %, except for ozone (increase by 13.9%), water pollution by 0.7%∼ 11.8%, and solid waste pollution by 5.8%∼ 19.7%. Meanwhile, SCC policy shows a more prominent reduction effect in eastern cities, megacities, young local officials and regions with high government capacity. The dynamic effect reveals that the environmental benefits take effect after 2∼4 years of SCC implementation, and then the benefit will increase significantly over time. The mechanism tests indicate that although the rebound effect will deteriorate the environmental quality, SCC can reduce pollution through industrial structure optimization and technological innovation. Overall, this finding inspires other emerging economies to solve the dilemma of economic development and environmental governance at the level of new infrastructure construction.

MEDIA BAHARU DALAM PENTADBIRAN KERAJAAN TEMPATAN – SATU PENDEKATAN BERASASKAN MODEL MEC

One of the government administrators using the latest technology under the government through the Ministry of Housing and Local Government (KPKT). Where the Ministry has launched an online system that will be monitored by the Local Authority called ePBT. The launch is aimed at improving the efficiency of PBT processing business, producing more efficient work, and not burdening consumers or taxpayers. In the context of the local government system, especially in the decision-making process, the public authorities (taxpayers), councilors and officials of local authorities are very important in the form of a communication network system that enables various issues to be heard and heard, ultimately involves any service transformation, work network connection and other changes that are generally defined through the MEC model. The use of this model is closely linked to the Local Government Department to further enhance the efforts to assist Local Authorities in providing E-Government services. The Local Government Department under the Ministry of Housing and Local Government takes proactive measures to maximize the use of information communication technology (ICT) in the delivery of public services specifically for Local Authorities. This means that the e-PBT system is believed to see the implementation of Electronic Governance more efficient, fast, quality, safe and customer-friendly and able to have a high impact on the public compared to the long-term Public Administration model (NPM) Malaysia.

‘Gypsy Eroding Liberty is Gorgio Eroding Liberty’: Making Europe More Equal from the British Romani Rights Movement

This paper explores the capacity for political agency of the British Romani Civil Rights Movement, assessing its particular connections with the construction and application of laws in the UK and Europe during the late 1960s and the early 1970s. A dual perspective will be adopted in order to trace and bring into dialogue the pressure brought to bear by Romani activism on both the Ministry of Housing and Local Government (MHLG) and the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) in the United Kingdom following the historic Recommendation 563 of the Council of Europe pertaining to the situation of Gypsies and other Travellers. Based on FCO sources, this study highlights the performative power of ‘Gypsy diplomacy’ while negotiating political spaces in the United Kingdom.

The role of construction industry and construction policy on sustainable rural development in China.

Recently, rural development has depended on the construction industry's success due to the high employment rate in the construction industry and its development role in the rural areas, and this phenomenon needs research focus. Hence, the current article examines the impact of the construction industry (construction industry revenue and growth) and construction policy (construction industry subsidies) on sustainable rural development in China. The study also used the control variable of gross domestic product (GDP) and industrialization. The article has collected secondary data from the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development and World Development Indicators (WDI) from 1991 to 2020. The article has applied the Augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) test to examine stationarity and quantile autoregressive distributed lag (QARDL) model to investigate the association among variables. The results revealed that the construction industry revenue, growth, construction policy GDP, and industrialization positively link sustainable rural development in China. Thus, the findings exposed that if the country's construction industry improved, rural development also increased accordingly. This study guides the policy development authorities to develop effective policies related to improvement in the construction industry that will enhance sustainable rural development.

Does the COVID-19 affect tenants’ adherence to lease obligations in rental market? Property managers’ perspective

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to investigate how the pandemic affects tenants’ response to their lease obligations. This paper commences with examining the adopted tenant selection criteria during the COVID-19 pandemic. Then, this paper statistically tests if there is a relationship between selection criteria and response on whether the pandemic has effects or not. Then, this paper investigates the specific areas of impact on tenants’ ability to adequately keep to lease agreements in the Nigerian rental market. Finally, this paper proceeds to confirm if there is a relationship between selection criteria and the aspects of tenants’ deficiencies in rental obligations because of COVID-19.Design/methodology/approachSurvey data, backed with interviews, is elicited from practicing estate surveyors and valuers and licensed property managers in Lagos, the largest property market in Nigeria and sub-Sahara Africa. Policy solutions and implications were solicited from personnel at the ministry of housing and senior professionals in the property sector. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, factor analysis and computer-aided qualitative data analysis, Atlas.ti.FindingsTenant’s health status is now accorded a priority together with others. Numbers of tenants are challenged with keeping to the prompt-rent-payment rule. Other areas of slight breaches included livestock rearing, subletting, alteration and repair covenants. Except for tenant reputation and tenant family size, there was no significant relationship between tenant’s health status consideration and the COVID-19 effect on tenant non-compliance with lease obligation. Tenants’ non-compliance with tenancy obligations has a connection with the tenants’ affordability, reputation, ability to sign an undertaking and health conditions during the pandemic. This paper recommends rental housing policy review.Practical implicationsIt is recommended that the rental policy should be reviewed to give room for rental allowance or palliatives, private rental market regulation, exploration of the national housing fund and, if possible, social housing adoption policy in Nigeria.Originality/valueThis paper draws policymakers’ attention to the need to prepare for the future safety net that caters to citizenry welfare in challenging times.

Between Official Orthodoxy and Received Wisdom: Explaining Urban House Vacancies in Nigeria

Housing policies demonstrate the importance of shelter in the hierarchy of human needs. Therefore, Nigeria has a history of initiatives, handled by a ministry of housing, to stimulate housing production. However, recently expressed views by the housing minister suggest a new official thinking which, if officially embraced, could have undesirable implications for the sector. The views dispute the much mentioned 20 million-unit housing shortfall; deny the existence of any shortfall because of observed urban vacancies; suggest that all vacant houses are available for use and can be utilised for existent urban needs; and attribute rising urban housing demand exclusively to rural-urban migration. In this paper, these views are examined, particularly because Nigeria has ordinarily not been associated with housing sufficiency; Nigeria’s characteristic situation of rapidly rising rents suggest a supply insufficiency; every vacant house may not be available for occupation; and urban migration can also come from non-rural sources. Data for the study comes from the archives, received wisdom on the operations of the housing industry and empirical findings in housing economics. The findings reveal that a lack of data evidence is enough justification for the minster’s dismissal of the much mentioned 20 million-unit shortfall, but not the complete absence of a shortfall. The assertion that vacancies imply an oversupply is equally unsubstantiated by data and unsupported by received wisdom. Also the view that all vacancies imply availability is misplaced; and the claim that urban migration is entirely of rural origin disregards urban-urban migration. The conclusion is that the claims of an oversupply and absence of a housing shortfall are unfounded, particularly in the absence of data evidence, the same grounds for official dismissal of the 20 million-unit shortfall. The study recommends that the ministry should have a “rethink and understand the problem”, particularly how the housing market works.

Evaluation of seasonal ecological vulnerability using LULC and thermal state dynamics using Landsat and MODIS data: a case study of Prayagraj City, India (1987-2018).

Prayagraj city (India) has been selected as a smart city by the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs,Government of India in 2015. However, long-term spatiotemporal seasonal Land Use/Land Cover (LULC) dynamics and Land Surface Temperature (LST) interactions with ecological vulnerability for different seasons are lacking. Accordingly, this research has been carried out to study the seasonal (summer and winter) LULC and its change pattern, thermal dynamics, and their role in exploring the ecological state over Prayagraj city and its surroundings using multi-temporal Landsat (1987-2018) and MODIS Terra data (2007-2018) at both diurnal and nocturnal scenarios. The LULC classification was carried out using Maximum Likelihood Classifier (MLC) by adopting the Anderson classification scheme with more than 85% of overall accuracy. The Landsat data-based LST has been estimated using Mono-Window Algorithm (MWA) for diurnal scenario whereas MODIS-based LST was calculated for nocturnal scenario. Ecological vulnerabilitystate has been evaluated both in day-time and night-time using Urban Thermal Field Variance Index (UTFVI) in summer and winter during 1987-2018 and 2007-2018, respectively. Overall, built-up land increased the most by 18.25% which was responsible for massive urbanization during 1987-2018. In contrast, forest land decreased by 2.22% during 1987-2018. The most vulnerable class was agriculture land followed by forest land irrespective of seasons. Thermal state was intensified by mean LST by 1.25 ℃ in summer and 0.58 ℃ in winter in day-time. However, in night-time, the mean LST intensified by 6.64 ℃ in summer and 1.86 ℃ in winter. The excellent ecological class having no SUHI effects declined in summer during 1988-2018 by 1.59% but surged in winter by 12.33% during 1987-2018 in north-west regions at day-time, whereas in night-time the excellent ecological class having no SUHI effects severely declined in summer as well as in winter during 2007-2018 by 11.1% and 1.32%, respectively. However, the worst ecological class having strongest SUHI effects severely spread in night-times compared to day-time which mainly concentrated in central core part of the city during 2007-2018 by 5.33%. The present study has generated a comprehensive long-term geospatial database which can be used for urban planning to achieve sustainable development to make Prayagraj city a truly smart city in future.

Market Transformation Towards Sustainability in Saudi Arabia: A Comparison Between Mostadam And LEED Rating Systems

The Saudi Vision 2030 launched several visualization programs, including the housing program, to create a vibrant environment for families and society. The Ministry of Housing created Mostadam, a national green building rating system that Sustainable Building operates to achieve this aim. Previously, buildings in Saudi Arabia were primarily certified using the US Green Building Council's LEED Rating system. (USGBC). The study investigates the market transformation towards sustainability in Saudi Arabia by comparing Mostadam and LEED. The study's main objectives are to compare Mostadam and LEED in terms of rating systems, certification levels, and the weight of categories offered in the two rating systems. The market transformation is investigated by using comparative analysis. Results showed that the Mostadam rated building is more adapted to the Saudi construction industry, and this is because awareness about building sustainability transformed the market towards more sustainable construction.

Use of Community Relations in Compensation Payment Process in Estate Management Practice: A Case Study of Kwale Industrial Park Acquisition

The engagement of a community in any project to be sited in it has always been recommended as the ideal step to take by government and organisations. However, bickering still ensues due to the non-diligent application of community relations, an arm of public relations, that guarantees a cordial relationship between an organisatio n/government and its host communities. Therefore, the principal intention of this conceptual study is on the relationship between Estate Management Practice and Community Relations. This study was conducted to examine what community relations activities are, and to investigate if community relations was applied in the compensation payment process in the case of Kwale Industrial Park Acquisition in Delta State, Nigeria. Persuasion theory served as the theoretical framework of the study. The researchers adopted the library research design and participant observation methods. Results indicate that community relations were partially applied in the compensation payment process. It was concluded that the Land Use Act, which prescribed the method of valuation to be used in acquisition and compensation, did not foresee the problem of gross inadequacies of compensation, and the pre-payment and post-payment disputes associated with it. The researchers, therefore, recommended, amongst others, that there should be public enlightenment from time to time to make the public understand the roles of estate surveyors and valuers, for this will, to a great extent, make the public cease patronising quacks in compensation exercises. Also, Government ministries, specifically the Ministry of Information, Ministry of Land, Surveys and Urban Development, Ministry of Housing, and other Ministries that have anything to do with communities, should have community relations department as an arm to handle community relations issues.

Collaborating Conflict Management and Rural/Urban Sustainable Development in South-South Nigeria

Conflicts have emerged as key issues challenging local, regional, national and global security. Environmental crises and problems throughout the world are widespread and increasing rapidly. In relation to these concerns, the main objective of the study was to examine the collaborating conflict management and rural/urban sustainable development in south-south Nigeria. Other specific objectives set for the study were to examine the impact of accommodation on economic growth and to determine the influence of communication on quality of life. The population comprised of staff of ministry of Housing and Urban Development in Edo state. A sample size of eighty five (85) participants were selected using stratified sampling method taking from the total staff of ministry of Housing and Urban Development in Edo state Nigeria. The statistical technique used was linear regression analysis. The results showed that a statistically strong and positive relationship exists between accommodation and economic growth (R square = 0.944 p < 0.05), and that communication have significant influence on quality of life (R square = 0.769 p < 0.05). This result is statistically significant as the p-value of the results (0.000) is less than 0.05 level of significance set for the study. The study concluded that accommodation has a strong and significant impact on economic growth of south-south Nigeria and that if there is effective communication it will help enhance the people’s quality of life. The study recommends that organizations/government should provide conducive environment through good accommodation in order to foster the economic growth and they should continue to communicate effectively through clear policies, apparent procedures and rules communication to improve quality of life of the people.

Incorporating Semi-Automated Approach for Effective Software Requirements Prioritization: A Framework Design

Software Requirements Prioritization (SRP) is one of the crucial processes in software requirements engineering. It presents a challenging task to decide among the pool of requirements and the variance of the stakeholder’s needs in prioritizing requirements. Semi-automated requirements prioritization is implemented in both manual and automatic processes. When prioritizing requirements, these aspects such as importance, time, cost and risk, should be taken into account. The emergence of machine learning is advancing to improve and automate the SRP process whereby decision making can be performed with minimal human intervention. Incorporating machine learning approaches in prioritization techniques can be implemented in the ranking process and classifying the priority group of the software requirements. A Semi-Automated Requirements Prioritization framework (SARiP), which implements semi-automatic process in requirements prioritization is proposed. SARiP concentrates on the areas related to prediction of requirements priority group and ranks requirements using classification tree and ranking algorithm. SARiP has been successfully evaluated in the government sector domain by the i-Tegur team from the Department of Information Technology, Ministry of Housing and Local Government of Malaysia (KPKT). 80% of the participants agreed that SARiP is extremely likely to help the participants in prioritizing the requirements for their projects. All participants agreed that SARiP is reliable and useful. Recording the requirements and results for the prioritization will be considered for future work and traceability function will be included to trace the requirements changes.

Collection and Services of Government Libraries in Delhi

The present study aims to find out the collection development and management, library services, library staff, library budget, and ICT technology in the selected six libraries of the central government ministries viz. Ministry of Law and Justice, Ministry of Corporate Affairs, Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare, Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs and Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution that are situated in Delhi by way of collecting their qualitative and quantitative data on aforesaid parameters which could be directly related to their overall development. There are various studies on various types of government libraries however no study on ministerial libraries of the government of India has been done before. The research was designed through a structured questionnaire that aimed at collecting information about the overall collection, management, and functions of the libraries and subsequently, the librarians or heads of selected libraries alongwith their staff were approached for collection of the data specific to the structured questionnaire. Findings of the study show that these libraries are lacking professional skilled staff as well as the unavailability of adequate ICT components. Furthermore, there is a lack of proper information services which is hindering their overall development. Since these libraries are special libraries in nature and consists of a rare and useful collection related to their respective Ministry, hence, evaluation and study of these libraries to know their developmental status will be helpful to the library users.

Study of Technological Interventions in Collection and Transportation of Municipal Solid Waste Management Practices – A Case of Ahmedabad City

In today’s scenario, to cater all services in a living habitat is very necessary part to fulfil the need of each and every individual to live a comfortable level of their living standard. Due to population upsurge and urbanization, solid waste management is one of the chief issues to deal with as it affects quality of life. Ahmedabad is the 7th largest city of India and generates about 4000 Metric tons of waste daily. Smart Cities are defined in various ways by different people, but all have an underlying concept that being as “smart” involves using information and communication technologies (ICT), the internet to address urban challenges. The Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) under the Swachh Bharat Mission (SBM) -Urban designed the idea of Swachh Survekshan in which they have rated cities based on the innovative interventions undertaken by them to enhance cleanliness or swachhta. Swachh Survekshan toolkit of 2017 - 2018 have given importance to use technological parameters like Vehicle Tracking System (VTS), Biometric attendance systems etc, thus encouraging cities to incorporate them, especially in Primary Solid Waste Management. This research paper studies the Primary Municipal Solid Waste Management in Ahmedabad with data collection and interactions with the municipal officials of Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC). It studies the implementation and usage of the Vehicle tracking System (VTS) - Ecoskipper in Ahmedabad. The study was done in 2018, includes analysis of existing scenario. A framework for the study was made to analyze the Vehicle Tracking System technology.

The Impact of Localized Organization Factors Which Contribute To Improve in Reducing Project Delay of Property Development Company in Selangor, Malaysia

Despite the evolution and availability of various project management approaches in the literature, housing project delays are still occurring in Malaysia, according to statistics from the Ministry of Housing and Local Government Malaysia. As a result, a different research approach is needed in project management to address this issue (AlSehaimi, Koskela, & Tzortzopoulos, 2013). The aim is to use a localised alternative research methodology to examine the factors that contribute to the reduction of project delays by focusing on a few key factors, such as organization factors in property developers in Selangor, Malaysia. The study also looked at whether the demographic profiles of the respondents had anything to do with the differences in the project's success factors. The study's target audience was project managers working for a property developer in Selangor, Malaysia. A total of 50 respondents were selected to take part in the survey. As a result of researching localised organization causes of delays at a property development company in Selangor, Malaysia. It is possible to create a conceptual model that will aid in the reduction of project delays. Rather than a universal conceptual model.

The Affect of Localized Project Managers Factors Which Contribute To Enhance in Minimizing Project Delay of Property Developers in Selangor, Malaysia

Housing project delays among property development projects still taking place in Malaysia, according to statistics from the Ministry of Housing and Local Government Malaysia, despite the evolution and availability of various project management methods in the literature (AlSehaimi, Koskela, & Tzortzopoulos, 2013). As a consequence, in project management, an alternative research approach is needed. The aim is to investigate the factors that lead to the reduction of project delays by focusing on a few main factors, such as project manager factors, using a localised alternative research approach. The importance of localizing the analysis of these factors in property developers in Selangor, Malaysia. The study also looked at whether the respondents' demographic characteristics played a role in the disparities found in the project's success factors. Project managers associated with a Property Developer in Selangor, Malaysia, formed the study's target community. A total of 50 people have been chosen to participate in the survey. As a result of studying localized project manager causes of delay factors specifically at Selected Property Development Company in Selangor, Malaysia. A conceptual model that could help improve the reduction of project delays can be develop. This is a more localized alternative research approach, rather than a universal conceptual model.

Operational Energy and Carbon Cost Assessment Model for Family Houses in Saudi Arabia

In Saudi Arabia, housing projects account for almost half of the total electricity consumed by the construction industry because of the large number of housing projects compared to other types of buildings. This paper proposes a quantitative approach using a multiple linear regression assessment model to predict the energy cost and environmental cost of housing building in Saudi Arabia. It was developed to assist house owners in Saudi Arabia in estimating the monthly energy cost and associated operational carbon cost according to several predictor parameters. Based on related literature, these parameters were reviewed and discussed by experts from the Ministry of Housing. They included building location, wall type, number of occupants, window type, envelope insulation, building age, building area, number of air-conditioning units and their systems, and lighting system. The model development process included five main stages: collecting the energy and carbon cost data from completed operating housing units, categorizing the collected data based on parameters, diagnosing the quality of gathered data and filtering outlier data if any, building and generating a model, and lastly, testing and validating the model. More than 77 datasets were collected across the country during different times of the year. The findings of this study reveal that the relationship between the number of users and the building area with the energy cost is significant and that the number of users is more correlated to the energy cost than the age of the building or the number of central air conditioners installed. Moreover, the results show that the developed model has the ability to predict energy and carbon costs with high accuracy. The developed model serves as a decision support tool for householders and decision makers in the Ministry of Housing to control the predicted parameters. This would be beneficial for the housing unit owners for allocating constrained budgets.

Modelling of Indian vendors posture using rapid upper limb assessment (RULA)

Ergonomics is an interdisciplinary subject that deals with human interaction with computers, malfunctions, machines, products, and services. For the past two decades it has played a major role in human interaction systems, redesigning many workstations to improve human health and their livelihoods in the context of currency analysis. As per the (MHUPI) ministry of housing and urban poverty alleviation, Govt. of India, there are 10 lakh street merchants operating across the country, of which about 20% are street food vendors. Most of the street vendors are working 8–10 h a day to tell the currency with strange posture. Repetitive work and awkward posture cause many people to experience the ill effects of outer muscle issues (MSD) and business-related constant wounds. This research has been carried out posture risk assessment Indian food street vendors. The risk assessment of MSD was performed on RULA, which based on the questionnaire survey, anthropometry data and posture of vendors. 32 responses were collected and applied on RULA assessment @ CATIA-V5 Software. This study shows the requirement of cart or workstation redesign which are highly expected for un-organized sectors to up-liftment of vendor’s life.

Towards an Eco-Efficient Development Strategy that Minimises the Risks Associated with the Location of Gas Stations in Human Settlements: A Fuzzy PROMETHEE Method

Evaluating real world situations in risky environments based on various qualitative/quantitative criteria in order to suggest a strategy/policy among available options is one of the critical challenges in incident management. Such is the case when considering an eco-efficient development strategy that can minimize the risk associated with the location of gas stations in human settlements. Taking the Douala city of Cameroon as an example, four actions were evaluated, including the options of relocating the gas stations, putting in place of emergency response plan in gas stations, and relocation of households subject to a group of four criteria. Data were collected via personal communication with decision-makers using a five-point Likert scale. The market values of buildings subject to expropriation were estimated based on order No. 0082/Y. 15.1/MNUH/D of 20 November 1987 of the ministry of Housing and Urban Development, Cameroon. The financial costs incurred in establishing a gas station were an average value obtained from a sample of 80 gas stations randomly selected among those whose locations do not comply with existing regulations. These amounts were obtained from their financial records, while the value of putting in place an emergency action plan was obtained from the current market value of the equipment required. The algorithm of PROMETHEE under the usual criterion function was implemented. The results suggested that putting in place an emergency response plan could minimize relocation costs, maximize profits/welfare, and maximize environmental quality, and minimize social impacts, and was therefore considered as the most preferred alternative. Sensitivity analyses of results further confirmed that implementation of emergency response plan is the most preferred alternative.

Vulnerability curves for masonry buildings affected by hyperconcentrated flows as natural disaster risk management tools for the quantification of material damage

The damage assessment caused by floods, earthquakes, hurricanes among others phenomenons in the world are analyzed with methodologies such as “Vulnerability curves”. In Peru, disasters caused by hyperconcentrated flows are alarming due to a climatic variability such as the “El Niño Costero” phenomenon. Therefore, this research has developed vulnerability curves for 1 and 2-story confined masonry buildings in Urb. San Idelfonso, Ica - Peru; linking the variables: flow depth, associated with the event produced by heavy rains at the top of the “Quebrada Cansas” caused by the “El Niño Costero” phenomenon in 2017, and the percentage of the damage based on the methodology of the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), whose formula is the repair value and total building value. The monetary amounts and items of the buildings are obtained from the RM 415-2017-VIVIENDA of the Ministry of Housing, Construction and Sanitation of Peru. The process consisted of hydrological modeling in HEC-HMS, hydraulic modeling in FLO-2D, damage percentage estimate and vulnerability curves production. Finally, the vulnerability curves for hyperconcentrated flows were contrasted with similar studies regarding curves for flooding and debris flow. The results of the investigation showed that the “El Niño Costero” phenomenon in 2017 had an economic impact of at least 1.3 million soles in Urb. San Idelfonso. In addition, at least 24 buildings had a complete damage and 21 buildings an extensive damage.
