Join us: Pre-Event for 2025 GPDRR & 2025 IRDR Young Scientists Lumos
21 April 2025

Registration Link: https://zoom.us/meeting/register/mmcu76IsT9GZf5MXjCt9Fg

IRDR and U-INSPIRE will organise an online workshop entitled  “From Data to Action: DRR solutions from young professionals”, scheduled at UTC 8:00-9:30 (16:00-17:30 Beijing time), 26 April.  This workshop is served as a pre-Event for 2025 GPDRR and also the 1st 2025 IRDR Young Scientists Lumos.

The topic underscores the critical need to transform vast and growing disaster risk data into tangible, equitable, and scalable solutions. Young professionals, often at the forefront of emerging technologies and interdisciplinary approaches, possess unique insights into leveraging tools such as AI, remote sensing, and crowdsourced data to address systemic gaps in DRR. By spotlighting their work, this Lumos aims to bridge the divide between theoretical data analysis and practical implementation, ensuring innovations are context-sensitive and aligned with local and global resilience agendas. This topic aligns with the cross-cutting theme of 2025 GPDRR “Accelerate action for our collective sustainable future” and priority of global risk science research framework “Harness technologies, innovations, data and knowledge for risk reduction”. It is expected that through the discussion, the innovation cases from young professionals will be visualized and acknowledged by the global DRR community.
