Abstract
As mentioned in the last chapter on research design, the case-study approach was applied to explore key issues of delivering disaster-resilient housing in the light of post-disaster housing reconstruction (PDHR). This chapter provides an overview of the fieldwork implementation and the background of four case-study sites based in Central Vietnam: Hoa Hiep Bac, Loc Tri, Ia Broai, and Tan Ninh.
