The report of the "Regional Workshop on Disaster Risk Management in Latin America and the Caribbean: Towards a project plan for integrated science and risk management for the region" is now available online.

The "Regional Workshop on Disaster Risk Management in Latin America and the Caribbean: Towards a project plan for integrated science and risk management for the region" took place from 3-5 September 2012 in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

The workshop particularly addressed the themes “social vulnerability in the context of disaster risk”, “trans-disciplinary tools for making scientific data useful to risk managers”, and “institutional arrangements for risk management”. These themes were discussed in plenary sessions and break-out groups, composed of experts and early-career scientists, as well as representatives of international organizations.
