Earthquake risk reduction in Europe: the EPICentre-Sapienza Network

Although there is increasing earthquake risk awareness among the public and policy-makers in many European countries, there is a need to develop holistic strategies for mitigating and managing seismic risk.

This collaboration of world-leading experts will better integrate current research at both institutions and establish an active and impactful research community for advancing knowledge and increasing awareness of models and tools for earthquake risk assessment, disaster risk reduction, and multi-hazard resilience engineering.
