Short bio

Pequena biografia

Over the past 20 years, Dr. Victor Marchezini has studied the sociology of disasters. His Ph.D. in Sociology focused on long-term disaster recovery process, and his master analyzed temporary shelter administration in disasters. Currently, Marchezini is researcher at Cemaden (Brazilian Early Warning Center), and Professor at the Doctorate Program on Earth System Science at the National Institute for Space Research (CCST/INPE), and the Postgraduate Program on Disaster Science (ICT/Unesp - Cemaden/MCTI). In 2019, he created the Understanding Socioenvironmental Extremes Lab (UNSEEL)/Grupo de Pesquisa em Desastres to capacitate a new generation of interdisciplinary scientists studying social aspects of disasters.

Between 2018 and 2023, Marchezini served in the executive board of RC 39 (Sociology of Disasters) at the International Sociological Association (ISA). In 2022-2023, he served as visiting postdoctoral researcher at Natural Hazards Center, University of Colorado-Boulder, awarded by Sao Paulo Research Foundation (https://hazards.colorado.edu/news/center-news/welcome-victor-marchezini-researcher-in-residence). His postdoctoral research was focused on interdisciplinary methods to promote people-centered warning systems. 

Between 2024 and 2028, Marchezini will serve as co-chair of the SAGE project (Subseasonal Applications in Agriculture and Environment), which is part of the World Weather Research Programme (WWRP)/World Meteorological Organization (WMO).
