The Disaster Risk Management Training, jointly conducted by DRMKC and CONRIS, offers comprehensive knowledge on risk management. The program covers themes such as international frameworks, hazards, risk drivers, societal impacts, coping strategies or public perception, among others. From 27 February to 1 March 2024.

Happy to contribute to #TEDxVarese #Countdown event with a talk on #AI and its role in #climate science.... and to share the experience done in the last years with the ITU/WMO/UNEP Focus Group on AI4NDM, the H2020 project CLINT - Climate Intelligence, the #JRC project on AI-enhanced climate services, and several other initiatives and activities.
Hello, I'm Christos, and I'm excited to introduce myself as the latest addition to the Risk Data Hub team. My professional path has been deeply rooted in academia, where I've had the privilege of working in several countries from Greece and Sweden to receiving my PhD in France. I've spent a considerable portion of my career immersed in the dynamic world of geospatial data science, artificial intelligence, and the captivating field of natural hazards and risks. I’m eager to make a meaningful impact, grow professionally and personally within this dynamic and multicultural environment I've been fortunate to join. Beyond my professional pursuits, I have a deep appreciation for the world of technology, from tinkering with computers to exploring the latest gadgets and tech innovations. I’m also a sports enthusiast, i enjoy hiking and trying different methods of coffee brewing.

The 7th Annual Seminar by the Disaster Risk Management Knowledge Centre of the European Commission is just around the corner. The seminar underscores the importance of:1️⃣ Building resilience at all levels - local, national, and EU.2️⃣ Transitioning from alarming disaster statistics to actionable knowledge. 3️⃣ Collaborating across sectors to define pathways to a more resilient EU.
Ciao! I'm Paolo and I've joined the CEMS Mapping Team. My expertise is in web development, GIS and cartography having previously worked with LINKS Foundation, ITHACA, WFP and De Agostini Group. I mainly work with geospatial open source technologies and in the past I contributed to the open source project GeoNode. I have working experience in Haiti and Malawi in the fields of disaster response and emergency preparedness. I graduated in Architecture at Politecnico di Milano.
Hello everyone, I'm Michele Ronco, the newest member of the DRMKC. I hold a Ph.D. in theoretical physics from the University of Rome La Sapienza and prior to relocating to Lake Maggiore, I was a Postdoc at the Image Processing Lab in Valencia, where I focused on explainable machine learning to address complex challenges at the intersection of weather hazards and socioeconomic vulnerability. I also worked as a Data Scientist in the remote sensing and insurance sectors. Outside of work, I'm a sports enthusiast, particularly enjoying soccer, volleyball, and climbing. Additionally, I have a strong passion for cinema and dabble in a bit of drawing on the side.
