The Disaster Research Days 2024 is a joint event by the European Commission’s Community of European Research and Innovation for Security (CERIS), the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction’s European Science and Technology Advisory Group (E-STAG) and co-hosted by the Austrian Federal Ministry of Finance, the Austrian Federal Ministry of Science, Research and Education and the Disaster Competence Network Austria.
As part of the EU network project COVALEX, we will be running an online hackathon, starting on July 22, 2024. The aim is to develop an IT tool that addresses the challenges of data interoperability in disaster management, especially for hydrometeorological risks (floods, storms, droughts, etc.). The winning team will be invited to the Disaster Research Days 2024.
Hazard and risk are two fundamental concepts in disaster management that are often unclearly differentiated from one another. The focus is often on the analysis of hazards, while the analysis of risks and their perception are neglected in disaster management.
