Upcoming Activities 2022
22-26 August - CNDS/EGU Summer School
Under the title "Natural Hazards in the Antrophocene" and focusing on diversities in approaches and practices in natural hazards and disaster science, this one-week course will explore DRR through the disaster management cycle (mitigation, preparation, response and recovery), looking at the interplay between natural hazards and society.
29-30 August - Panta Rhei workshop on Drought in the Anthropocene (by invitation only)
The next Panta Rhei workshop on Drought in the Anthropocene will be organised on 29-30 August 2022 at CNDS/Uppsala University. The workshop can be attended by invitation only. As working group, we intend to investigate the interaction between drought and people. We aim to study the influence of people on drought, the impact of drought on people and the feedbacks between drought and society. Our overarching goal with these experiments is to increase understanding of drought-society feedbacks, both positive and negative.
