DG HOME has recently announced the next CERIS event “Disaster Research Days 2024”, which will be held in Vienna on 8-10 October 2024 with a focus on Shaping the Future of Science and Research for Disaster Risk Reduction.
The aim is to exchange interactions among Science and Research and Disaster Risk Reduction policies, through dialogues involving scientists, practitioners, risk managers, policymakers, and local communities.
The event will showcase the latest research findings and innovative solutions to enhance societal resilience. Participants will engage in knowledge-sharing, tool development, and strategy formulation, addressing the multifaceted challenges of disaster risk reduction. It will serve as a crucial platform for fostering collaboration, strengthening partnerships, and driving forward the integrated approaches essential for effective disaster risk mitigation and management.
You can find more information and register for this event at the dedicated event page.

Autoship is, as the name suggests, an acronym for autonomous ship. Just like with self-driving cars, the possibilities of an unmanned boat seem endless. It can create more efficient freight transport, around the clock deliveries and these are just a few of the examples. The project has two societal challenges.
At first, De Vlaamse Waterweg was a bit hesitant as their experience with FP7 or Horizon 2020 projects was limited and they had not been very successful up until then. The fact that they were already doing basic research on the topic of autonomous boats, and the administrative help of NCP FLanders helped De Vlaamse waterweg to cross the line and get involved.
