The concept of risk management includes a wide range of measures, which deal with natural hazards and which are divided into different topics such as prevention, protection, preparation, event management and reconstruction. A correct risk perception in the population and an efficient communication of risks, build up an important starting point to deal with natural hazards. The main objective of the project is the improvement of the collaboration between institutions and the population on the communication about the risk regarding natural hazards. It is in fact necessary to increase the awareness in the population, through the development of specific communication tools. To this purpose the current status shall be surveyed at first and then good practice examples will be collected; these will be used to plan interviews and analysis of the needs concerning the different stakeholders and to develop tailor-made communication tools, such as a web platform. The activities to rise resilience will be completed by measures about the development of awareness for actors involved in risk management. Within the improvement of the risk awareness in border zones such as South Tyrol and Carinzia, particular importance will be given to the presence of different languages, to gender mainstreaming and to socio-cultural aspects. The continuous exchange of information will build up a multiplier of the project results, which will be available to all the active subjects within the risk management. (English)
