The evolving climate scenario has increased the frequency of extreme events and disasters. The problem is aggravating due to unchecked human activities and unplanned development. This interference with the natural processes is giving rise to a number of human-induced natural hazards. In order to reduce the risk of the existing and emerging hazards, it is imperative to model and understand the natural processes operating behind the hazards and mitigate the risks by developing tools to quantitatively hazard zonation, development of early warning system and products of DRR for citizens.

If you are interested in contributing to or getting to know the latest developments on DRR, mitigation product development, and the broad range of applications in geosciences, remote sensing, AI, ML and IoT, then this session would be of your interest. We expect to address the pressing issues of DRR and initiate a discussion on transforming publications to products and incubating start-ups.
