We present a six-step framework for the systemic multi-hazard and multi-risk assessment and management, designed to deal with complex, systemic, and multi-risks.
Adaptation to climate change
Climate-neutral and smart citiesAddressing target audiences and expressing needs
- To raise awareness and possibly influence policy
- Collaboration
To bring together research on multi-hazards and multi-risks with research on systemic risks.
- EU and Member State Policy-makers
- International Organisations (ex. OECD, FAO, UN, etc.)
- Academia/ Universities
R&D, Technology and Innovation aspects
Although the framework is based on ideas from systemic risk research togetehr with literature reviews and stakeholder interactions including high-level workshops, it has not been tested in real-world applications.
It will, however, be implemented in five pilot case study areas in Europe over the next 3 years (Scandinavia, Danube Region, Veneto Region, North Sea, and Canary Islands). Nevertheless, the framework should already be beneficial in current efforts that tackle the governance and modeling challenges regarding multi-risk by suggesting focusing on system boundaries and dependency dimensions.
