As every year, we planned to organise our established annual Conference "New Technologies and Civil Protection", during the fall of 2020, this year probably in Thessaloniki .

However, the uncertainty still prevailing over the COVID-19 pandemic forced us to change, yet not to suspend, our actions.

For 2020, we are focused on avoiding a conference requiring physical presence. We are considering alternatively, the possibility of an online conference.

We will be back soon with an update

1. The development, improvement and establishment of a platform, within frameworks and standards of knowledge management systems for disaster and crisis risk

According to the World Bank, data on risk assessment and assessment are developed by the international scientific community and are considered sophisticated and complex. It is difficult to disclose them by non-technical persons. Therefore, the World Bank has focused on developing a communication tool combining the results of the risk model with infrastructure assets and socio-economic data. Thus, this tool offers a significant number of data in an easily comprehensible form (Sinha, 2006).
