About

We have a well-developed body of knowledge on what causes disaster risk and what can be done to reduce it - so why does it often fail to lead to appropriate action? This June, join the DRR Summer School to explore this question! 

What’s the problem?  The 2022 Global Assessment Report (GAR) highlighted that DRR practitioners must invest in more effective and creative ways to communicate risk to gain traction for action.

How can the problem be addressed?  Pablo Suarez (1970-2024) championed “creative approaches to risk management” to better communicate - and motivate - people to take appropriate risk-informed action.

What you will learn at the Summer School: Analyze theoretical underpinnings of risk communication! Exchange practical experience! Build networks of risk communicators & practitioners! Inspire new ways to make risk communication more effective!

With seats limited to 45, make sure to book soon.
