The 2nd IRDR Young Scientists Lumos, co-hosted by IRDR and the U-INSPIRE Alliance, will take place online as a pre-event for the 2025 Global Platform for Disaster Risk Reduction (GPDRR). Themed “Localization of the Global Agenda: DRR Solutions from Young Professionals,” this one-hour workshop will highlight how young scientists and professionals are transforming global disaster risk reduction frameworks into tangible, community-based solutions. 

As disasters become more complex and climate-driven, localized, youth-led innovations are more crucial than ever. This Lumos will showcase grassroots approaches including community-based early warning systems, nature-based solutions for climate resilience, and educational initiatives targeting vulnerable populations. Presenters from Iran, Austria, and India will share case studies on topics such as inter-organizational resilience networks, scenario generation for disaster preparedness, and building heat health warning systems. Esteemed commentators and DRR experts will provide feedback and facilitate an engaging discussion. 

The event supports the 2025 GPDRR theme, “Accelerate action for our collective sustainable future,” and reflects the global science priority to “Support regional and national science and knowledge for policy and action.” We invite you to be part of this dynamic exchange as young professionals lead the way in bridging global policy with local action.
