To bring together research on multi-hazards and multi-risks with research on systemic risks.

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.
