The objectives of the project are: a) to assess the state-of-the-art of the economics of natural hazards with summaries of major results of research directly and indirectly linked to hazards; b) users of research results will be surveyed to determine the effectiveness of the knowledge transferred and the emerging issues deserving attention; c) a working paper will be produced with these findings; and d) a workshop will take place involving experts in the fields of environmental and natural hazards economics, natural resources economics, nonmarket valuation, regional economic modeling, macroeconomic modeling, hedonic methods, finance, and urban economics to discuss the issues and conclusions raised in the working paper. Decision makers responsible for natural hazards and disaster mitigation, experts in the field and other users will benefit from this project's findings since the risk of substantive local, regional and even national economic losses due to extreme natural events is increasing. This project is one of the many activities undertaken by the United States for the International Decade for Natural Disasters Reduction (IDNDR).

该项目的目标是：a)评估自然灾害经济学的最新进展，总结与灾害直接或间接相关的主要研究成果；B)对研究成果的使用者进行调查，以确定所转移知识的有效性和值得注意的新问题；C)将根据这些发现编写一份工作文件；(d)将举行一次讲习班，涉及环境和自然灾害经济学、自然资源经济学、非市场估价、区域经济模型等领域的专家；宏观经济建模、享乐方法、金融和城市经济学讨论工作文件中提出的问题和结论。负责自然灾害和减灾的决策者、实地专家和其他用户将受益于这个项目的研究结果，因为实质性的地方、极端自然事件造成的区域甚至国家经济损失正在增加。这个项目是美国为国际减少自然灾害十年所进行的众多活动之一。
