Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to invite you to submit an abstract to the session
S3.10 â??*Volcanic
risk analysis as a tool for crisis management*â?? for the COV11 Conference in

*Invited speaker: Natalia Deligne (GNS, New Zealand)*



*Conveners: Domenico Mangione â?? National civil protection department
(Italy), Costanza Bonadonna - University of Geneva (Switzerland), Sue
Loughlin - British Geological Survey (UK), Fatima Viveiros - Research

Jan Lindsay - University of Auckland (New Zealand), Kristi Wallace â?? United
States Geological Survey (USA)*



Description:

History has shown that successful volcanic risk and crisis management
strongly correlates with proactive risk reduction policies and practice
being in place before a volcanic crisis begins. Such policies and practice
should ideally be co-developed by scientists and stakeholders based on
comprehensive understanding and analysis of the volcanic risk that
encompass the characterization of elements at risk and the full spectrum of
vulnerability types associated with volcanic hazards.

Volcanic risk assessments and related products and services are useful for
decision-makers such as national and local civil protection organization
authorities before the event (long term), during the event (short term) and
after the event (long-term).

The UN Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction (SFDRR) recognizes that
national and federal authorities have the primary role to reduce disaster
risk; however local governments, communities, the private sector and other
stakeholders need to be involved in the process. Hence, comprehensive and
effective risk assessments and related products and services should be
co-designed and co-produced by scientists and stakeholders to answer
specific needs and to enhance preparedness for effective response (e.g.
SFDRR Priority 4).

We welcome contributions presenting innovative strategies and good practice
on how volcanic risk assessments and related products and services
facilitate real-time decision-making processes, improve emergency planning
for future events, development of early warning systems and resilience
action planning. Contributions describing the main challenges communicating
risk to the public and local authorities are also invited.
