SUMMARY:Emergent Risks and Extreme Events scoping workshop
LOCATION:United Nations University 
DESCRIPTION:Scoping Workshop of Knowledge-Action Network (KAN) on “Emergent Risks and E
 xtreme Events – Reducing Disaster Risks under Environmental Change –“\nObje
 ctives:\nDisasters continue to rise both in developing and in industrialize
 d countries. This is the direct result of environmental events that are ext
 reme or that have extreme impacts on economic, health, infrastructure, soci
 al, and other systems. However, there is a fundamental lack of understandin
 g of integrated human, ecological, and physical processes shaping risk casc
 ades and feedbacks in the context of the Anthropocene. Multi-hazard interac
 tions and cascading impacts including those involving technological hazards
  and social/political impacts are recognized but not yet supported by a sys
 tematic science agenda. The full solution space for disaster risk reduction
  includes reflection and redirection of development priorities, practices a
 nd trajectories in the context of global environmental change.\n\nThis Know
 ledge-Action Network (KAN) on Emergent Risks and Extreme Events aims to def
 ine an interaction network between science partners and wider stakeholders 
 to allow a structured integration and synthesis of expertise, professional 
 and local knowledge to accelerate action on multi-hazard and compound event
 s and so to support a transformation of development towards an equitable, s
 ustainable and resilient future. Scoping workshop aims to discuss on possib
 le research priorities, practical collaboration and engagement of stakehold
 ers in the research themes and near-term governance of the KAN. \nDate: Wed
