All approaches catalogued in the Disaster Risk Getaway have been developed for or could be adapted and applied to multi-hazard, multi-risk contents.They are presented under 2 themes: Multi-hazard Risk Assessment and Multi-hazard Risk Management. Multi-hazard Risk Assessment approaches speak to understand disaster risk and include examples of qualitative, semi-quantitative and quantitative approaches for hazard, vulnerability, exposure, impact, and risk assessment. Multi-hazard Risk Management approaches speak to governance, policy, and decision-making. These include qualitative, semi-quantitative and quantitative frameworks, platforms, methods, models, and tools including system modelling, decision-support, and stakeholder engagement approaches. Some of these approaches are also applicable for Multi-hazard Risk Assessment. It will also provide a list of definitions of multi-hazard, multi-risk terminology adopted by the MYRIAD-EU project.They follow established glossaries, incl. the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNDRR) terminology for disaster risk reduction.
Adaptation to climate change
Climate-neutral and smart citiesAddressing target audiences and expressing needs
- To raise awareness and possibly influence policy
- Help in technical expertise
- Use of research Infrastructure
The purpose of the Disaster Risk Gateway is to serve as an information resource and starting point to encourage engagement between different actors involved in disaster risk assessment and management, to promote interdisciplinary research and for research activities within MYRIAD-EU and other future projects.
The platform aims to support the wider hazard and risk management community to increase their understanding of what is currently possible, and how this knowledge can be applied to different disaster risk (including multi-hazard, multi-risk) challenges.
- EU and Member State Policy-makers
- International Organisations (ex. OECD, FAO, UN, etc.)
- Academia/ Universities
R&D, Technology and Innovation aspects
The Disaster Risk Gateway is now available for the public and will continue to develop dynamically over time as more content is crowdsourced and new content sub-categories are created by the wiki team.
