The paper compares disaster response systems, highlighting differences in government coordination, resource allocation, technology, and culture
This article aims to explore the perceptions of a group of UNESCO world heritage site managers (WHSM) on disaster risk management.
Severe droughts affected many regions in Africa in April 2025; this analytical report provides an analysis of the situation.
Drought conditions are affecting large parts of eastern and southern Europe, particularly in the Mediterranean region, and the Baltic countries.
This study aims to map the evolution and interdisciplinarity of drought research over time and across regions, offering insights for decision-makers.
In this paper the geographical spread of the epidemic and the measures implemented by each government and international organisation are analysed.
These models may be used either to guide the safe intervention of first responders or the later need to evacuate affected regions.
This study addresses the optimisation of the location of a radioactive-particle sensor on a drone, for a safer intervention of first responders.
The thesis examines whether German rescue workers are trained in medical, diagnostic, and tactical response.
How are evacuation strategies during nuclear disasters implemented? Analysing the effectiveness of pre-planned procedures versus improvisation
This work proposes the integration of chemical sensors with solid-phase microextraction fibers (SPME) on unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).
Evaluation of new technologies to boost disaster resilience and awareness among vulnerable groups while addressing ethical and inclusion issues.
This mapping offers an up to date overview of mechanisms in the Baltic Sea Region to involve children and young people in DRR practices.
Article on deaf and hard-of-hearing people’s experiences in emergencies and ways to improve accessible communication and preparedness.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of mass casualty decontamination by using a ’roll-off container’.
This article shows how expert-driven and explainable artificial intelligence models can probabilistically detect multiple agriculture-related hazards.
Methods that reveal how AI models make decisions can increase trust in their results and support the wider adoption of artificial intelligence.
