GEORGIA

On February 14, 2025, under Work Package 2 and led by UNIBO, our new T2.1 Guidelines – “Defining and Assessing the Impact of Catastrophic Events” were released. These guidelines delve deep into Georgia’s dynamic environment—its unique geography, climate variability, and hydrogeological challenges—that shape the country’s risk landscape.

What’s Inside?

🔹 Diverse Geographies & Climates

🔹 Extreme Weather & Water Disasters

🔹 Hydrogeological Instability

🔹 Beyond Natural Disasters

🔹 Coordinated Response & Future Resilience

Our guidelines don’t just revisit past events—they offer a clear path forward. By integrating comprehensive environmental data, international and national standards (including EIA and SEA), and a powerful emergency response system (with tools like the 112 public warning system), Georgia is building a safer, more resilient future.

Why It Matters:

The diverse natural challenges facing Georgia emphasize the urgent need for strategic disaster risk reduction. As climate change intensifies these events, our work is more critical than ever to protect lives, culture, and the future of this vibrant nation.
