The Human-Tech Nexus - Building a Safe Haven to cope with Climate Extremes

该小屋将采用创新的减少灾害风险解决方案，考虑到气候变化造成的潜在变化。这将涉及整合和利用欧洲主要研究小组、机构和利益攸关方最近在不同领土范围内发展起来的应对极端气候事件的最佳做法和成功的多学科经验。该项目的主要目标是推动一套“最佳的”跨学科风险管理工具和方法，这些工具和方法可以在欧洲各地尽可能多的情况下广泛采用和使用。项目活动的发展将考虑到以下主要关键方面：跨学科、系统性风险、联合生产、交叉受精、可转移性和长期遗产。十名示威者将组成一个多危险的竞技场，在这个舞台上，与极端气候有关的可能的灾难性事件将由科技界、从业人员、政策制定者和当地社区的代表共同处理。本项目将考虑的与极端气候有关的事件包括：森林火灾，包括荒地城市交界处火灾；气象/水文/农业干旱，包括相关的缺水；热浪；天气引起的山体滑坡，包括泥石流；河流和暴雨洪水；风暴，包括暴雨、冰雹、雷暴和风暴潮。该中心将主要侧重于灾害风险管理周期的预防和备灾阶段，明确考虑气候变化情景，并结合所考虑的短期(从几天到几个月)和长期(从几年到几十年)的各种事件的拟议解决方案。

The HuT will employ innovative disaster risk reduction solutions, accounting for the potential variations induced by climate change. This will involve integrating and leveraging best practices and successful multi-disciplinary experiences that have been recently developed within various territorial contexts by leading European research groups, institutions, and stakeholders, to deal with extreme climate events. The project’s main ambition beyond the state of the art is to promote the “best set” of trans-disciplinary risk management tools and approaches that could be adopted and used extensively across Europe, in as many situations as possible. The activities of the project will be developed considering the following main critical dimensions: trans-disciplinarity, systemic risk, co-production, cross fertilization, transferability, and long-term legacy. A set of ten demonstrators will constitute a multi-hazard arena wherein possible disastrous events associated with climate extremes will be dealt with jointly by representatives of the scientific and technical communities, practitioners, policy-makers and local communities. The events associated to climate extremes that will be considered in this project are: forest fires, including wildland urban interface fires; meteorological/hydrological/agricultural droughts, including associated water shortage; heatwaves; weather-induced landslides, including debris flows; fluvial and pluvial floods; storms, including heavy rain, hail, thunderstorms, and storm surges. The HuT will mainly focus on the prevention and preparedness phases of the disaster risk management cycle, explicitly considering climate change scenarios and integrating the proposed set of solutions, for the various events considered, over short- (from days to several months) and long-term (from years to decades) time horizons.
