Each of the four focus cities within the Tomorrow’s Cities Hub is affected by multiple, potentially interrelated, natural hazards. Known case studies also highlight contexts where events may occur simultaneously or consecutively, thus contributing to disaster risk through changes to the hazard landscape, exposure, or vulnerability, during the scenario.
This report summarises the contents and discussions of two 60-minute virtual workshops (30 July 2020, 40 participants; 6 August 2020, 35 participants) delivered by the multi-hazards integrating theme for the Tomorrow’s Cities consortium. Our aims in the workshops were the following:
- To introduce the multi-hazards integrating theme; and
- To explore the relevance of multi-hazard approaches and scenarios in the Tomorrow’s Cities project.
