Short description

Societies worldwide are faced with extreme weather events at an increasing scale, with climate change as a key driver of this development. Against this backdrop, the COST Action aims to establish a European interdisciplinary network, AlertHub, to facilitate international collaboration and knowledge transfer among scholars and practitioners whose work involves warning communication and disaster management.

The project uses a risk and crisis communication lense to advance knowledge, promote cooperation, and contribute to reducing risks and harm posed to the public by climate change-related disasters.

The project seeks to enhance the overall effectiveness of disaster response efforts and promote cross-border cooperation among scholars and practitioners in this key field.
