The Integrated Research on Disaster Risk (IRDR) Conference 2011 brought together over 300 experts, political figures, and other stakeholders from some 40 countries and regions. The conference aimed to advance new comprehensive approaches to natural hazards research and disaster risk reduction that investigate the root causes of disasters and incorporate input from scientists, decision-makers, and the public. Sessions revolve around three main topics: characterisation of hazards, vulnerability and risk; understanding decision-making in complex and changing risk contexts; and reducing risk and curbing losses through knowledge-based actions. An abstracts of papers is available online.
