Improving effectiveness in warning communication
Recognizing the enormous opportunities resulting from international solidarity and collaboration in disaster communication and management, AlertHub seeks to establish itself as the leading European interdisciplinary network centred on risk and crisis communication research with the aim of fostering cross-border knowledge exchange and collaboration between scholars and practitioners, to reduce public risk and harm posed by climate change-related disasters.
AlertHub is the place for scholars, practitioners, public institution representatives, policymakers, local authorities, journalists, EU institutions and organizations representatives to connect and collaborate in strengthening research and research dissemination in the field of warning communication.
To achieve its objectives, AlertHub aims to build an open-access knowledge platform focused on warning systems, legal and political frameworks, and the challenges of effective warning communication. The network also fosters collaboration to identify best practices and governance recommendations for improving warning communication. Finally, it seeks to develop innovative formats for knowledge exchange and networking among key stakeholders across Europe.
