Urban and social vulnerability assessment in the built environment: an interdisciplinary index-methodology towards feasible planning and policy-making under a crisis context

The current global crisis on Covid-19 has an adverse impact on urban regeneration of the built environment in emerging countries, with a recent world GDP drop of around 4.9 % and around 20–30 % decrease in economic funds intended for renovation policies, being required new decision support mechanism...
