RISKADAPT at EGU25

RISKADAPT was proud to be part of the European Geosciences Union General Assembly 2025 in Vienna, contributing to the scientific dialogue on climate extremes, multi-risk assessment and infrastructure resilience.

We co-organized the special session:
“Advances in multi-hazard and multi-risk modelling of climate extremes to increase asset resilience” which brought together researchers, practitioners and stakeholders to exchange insights on how to tackle the growing complexity of climate-related risks.

Here are a few highlights from the event:

Members of the RISKADAPT project present at EGU25, representing our collective effort toward risk-informed climate adaptation.

In Session: Engaged participants — insightful discussions and strong interest in climate risk and resilience.
