After
three successful IDRC Davos conferences the GRF Davos team is already
in the preparation for IDRC Davos 2012, which will take place from 26 to
30 August 2012 in Davos, Switzerland.
Risks
in a changing and global world are complex and interconnected, even
more so in a globalized world consisting of many societies at very
different levels of development. The frequency and severity of natural
disasters have increased markedly worldwide. Economic losses associated
with natural hazards are increasing exponentially in developing
countries, where local risk-transfer markets are generally weak.
Promoting integrative risk management is more then ever a pressing
issue.
At
IDRC Davos 2012 a multi- and interdisciplinary group of stakeholders
will discuss new findings and exchange experiences about the broad
spectrum of risks societies are facing today in plenary and parallel
sessions, workshops and training courses, and poster exhibitions.
